London is known for its rapid growth and high cost of living. Yet it is not a metropolis that is immediately associated with innovative housing projects. However, the British capital has a very long history of social housing construction and many innovative housing developments, from Henry Darbyshire's project for the Peabody Housing Association to eco-friendly neighborhoods like BedZED or modern community homes like the RIBA award-winning Dujardin Mews. Chronologically structured, this book focuses on major developments in architecture from the late nineteenth century to the present day. Much of the guidebook is made up of twentieth-century complexes: green suburbs, typically English imitations of Tudor estates, and brutalist icons such as the Barbican Center and Robin Hood Gardens. These and other lesser-known structures, located both in the heart of the metropolis and in its suburbs, are included in this guide.
