Walking away from the Bournemouth Echo building, we were distracted by Bristol & West House, a 1958 art deco building. Originally it must've been offices + retail, with the upper floors being converted to become the plainest apartments imaginable in 2015. Externally it's a very fine building, however.

Yellow on the Golden Lane Estate, London

Today I found some time to visit the Golden Lane Estate near the Barbican in London and to take some urban photographs which I hadn't done for a while. The Golden Lane Estate was built in the 1950s and is now Grade II listed. For more urban photographs of London including the Golden Lane Estate, visit my tumblr London Edge
