Illustration by Andrew Cadey

Dorchester Court (1933-34) is evocative of the 1930’s era for streamline modernism, with its strong horizontal flowing lines, metal windows and corner glazing.

It was developed by H C Morrell as luxury apartments. There are eight blocks containing 96 flats set around a central garden. When first opened, residents enjoyed the services of a doorman in each block.

The architects of this building, Leslie H Kemp and Frederick E Tasker, were famous for their designs for art deco cinemas throughout the U.K.

Dorchester Court is Grade II listed, but there are some areas that are in a worrying state of disrepair, where timber propping is now required to support some of the cantilever concrete balconies and corner windows.

Limited first edition print run of 20
