Descriere magazin:
Lost Futures casts a detailed look at the wide range of buildings constructed in Britain between 1945 and 1979. Although their bold architectural aspirations reflected the forward-looking social ethos of the postwar era, many of these structures have since been either demolished or altered beyond recognition. In this volume, photographs taken at the time of the buildings\' completion are accompanied by expert research examining their design and creation, the ideals they embodied and the reasons for their eventual destruction. Lost Futures covers many buildings, from housing to factories, commercial spaces to power stations, and presents the work of both iconic and lesser-known architects. The author charts the complex reasons that led to the loss of these postwar projects\' ambitious futures, and assesses whether some might one day be restored. About the Author British architecture historian and curator Owen Hopkins is the author of several popular architecture books, including Reading Architecture: A Visual Lexicon , Architectural Styles: A Visual Guide and Mavericks: Breaking the Mould of British Architecture . His scholarly interests have ranged from Nicholas Hawksmoor\'s Baroque grandeur to Alison and Peter Smithson\'s Brutalism, taking in everything in between.
