Brutalist Plants
AvOlivia Broome
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024
220 kr
Skickas
Brutalist architecture is commonly associated with a cold, austere aesthetic, but architects have long found ways of incorporating greenery into their designs, creating a striking contrast between hard concrete and the soft, organic shapes of plants. And if not designed, nature often has its own way of reclaiming the built environment. From green roofs to living walls, from the pocket gardens of Le Corbusier's Unite d'Habitation to the lush couryards and conservatory of London's Barbican Centre, Olivia Broome has curated an impressive selection of striking images from around the world.

With over 30 interviews with residents new and old, accompanied by stunning photography, this book offers a chance to peer into the private homes and lives of those lucky enough to live in this iconic estate.

This photographic collection will explore some of the world's most stunningly strange and imaginative buildings, from terracotta-pink bubble palaces in the south of France to mind-bendingly warped houses in Poland and buildings shaped like dogs, shoes and picnic baskets. Taking in private homes and national libraries, towering churches inspired by mountains and glaciers and architectural marvels from Bilbao to Beijing, these buildings are united by their adventurous spirit and mould-breaking ethos.

Introducing Zoe Alakija, a london-based cook, whose rich recipes blend modern British flavours with the rich colours and tastes of her Nigerian upbringing.

Zoe's immaculate balance of tastes combined with playful presentation ensures these are recipes to remember for those willing to explore broader, more environmentally responsible horizons.

2020 sparked a re-energised love of the capital's parks for its many inhabitants, and photographer Sophia Spring was no exception.

London is unique for its multitude of green spaces, which occupy some of the most expensive real estate in the world, but yet remain free and communal for all.

The familiar streets of the capital are rendered almost uncanny in this contemplative, tonal series by Berris Conolly. Captivating in their atmospheric, filmic quality, Conolly's photographs reveal small moments from the past, hinting at stories that have just happened; or are about to.

As many of us question the necessity of working from an office, this photographic series - taken in the days before wifi and iPhones - is a poignant reminder of how things once were. Teetering stacks of paper, off-kilter filing cabinets, gum-white computer monitors and the cold glow of the Xerox machine; what were once essential tools now stand as whimsical relics to a former life. Capturing this corporate world with a tender yet satirical eye, American photographer Steven Ahlgren's nostalgic series will resonate with anyone who has ever loved, hated or simply endured office life.
