UK Brutalist Houses
This building comes straight from Camden’s own Alexandra and Ainsworth Estate. Designed in a brutalist style in 1968 by Neave Brown of Camden Council’s Architects Department. Construction work commenced in 1972 and was completed in 1978. It is constructed from site-cast, board-marked white, unpainted reinforced concrete. Along with 520 apartments, the site also includes a school, community centre, youth club, heating complex, and parkland. It’s iconic look has made it a well visited place for architecture fans and film makers alike. You may recognise it from such movies as Kingsman: The Secret Service, or from the handful of music videos filmed there.
Capacity: 120 Citizens
Quality: 92%
If you are a fan of this building, it would really mean a lot if you liked it on the workshop!
