This site on Page's Walk, Bermondsey (previously home to Stompie the T34 tank!!) has an amazing history... Its also earmarked for the next Antepavilion and you can see all the shortlisted designs here 🍀architectsjournal.co.uk/news/seven-tea…
One of the great locations to feature in last year's Open House Festival -- this is Skip House on the Antepavilion site in Bermondsey which was built by Harrison Marshall of @CAUKINSTUDIO as an experimental micro-home 🏡
Peter Behrens’s thrilling AEG Turbine Factory (1908), somehow simultaneously far ahead of its time and monumentally ancient. A sublime building, happily still humming with industrial use.
'The quality that links all the places that I really love is a commitment to individualism and to themselves; places where people try not to follow trends, and adhere to their own version of what quality is.' @demarionunn interviewed in @AnOtherMagazine: anothermag.com/design-living/…
