VIST STRATFORD, LONDON
Friday 30th AUGUST 2024
The new London College of Fashion in Stratford opened in 2023, and is one of the new trends in architecture 'brutalism'. It won an award for the best architecture interior design in 2024. The centrepiece of the public areas of the building is the stunning double-height atrium and staircase resembling a spiral 'orange peel' shape, with transfer beams and columns of a complex nature - all in exposed concrete with exemplary detailing, making this an impactful space to visit. The staircase leads visitors down to the display spaces on the riverside lower ground floor or up to Maker’s Square.
