EXAMPLE: Contemporary London Architecture:
a London almost unknown to the average visitor, has given its architects a virtually free hand to express their talent. As architects are not afraid to transfer their ideas in their purest state, the result is an extroverted and extraordinary blending of historic and modern.
'Gherkin' 590 feet tall. Only visible from outside, once a year open inside with a long waiting list booked fully months in advance. Divided opinion on it's fallic symbolism. Sir Norman Foster landmark curvilinear 40-storey office building in the heart of London's financial centre and is unlike any other ever conceived. With distinctive tapering form that minimises its footprint and effect on the London skyline and eco-friendly glazed skin with lightwells, the building also has a glazed dome at the top with spectacular 360-degree views across the city. A Prize Winner.
An established architectural breakthrough of outstanding daring modern design. Lloyd's is the world's leading insurance market, housed in an award-winning modern building with origins in a 17th century coffee house. Famous for its inside out design with all the buildings guts on show, allowing for a huge internal space. Groundbreaking new concept by architect Richard Rogers in 1986.
Canada Square. A Project by: Adrian D. Smith, FAIA, RIBA Design. Partner of: Skidmore, Owings and Merrill LLP. The central part of the building is heavily indented and the unusual finishing around its crown "pagoda", makes this design unique in the area surrounding the building. The architectural futuristc sense reaches maximum heights with the revolving UFO nearby.
Minster Court A 2000 new neo-gothic style building. Its pinkish colour dominates the London skyline.
