‘London Estates’ surveys the architecture and influence of the capital’s council-built homes

London Estates: Modernist Council Housing 1946–1981, Thaddeus Zupančič.

London Estates, although it is presented with FUEL’s characteristically elegant and fine design, is a deeply political book. Author and photographer Thaddeus Zupančič isn’t claiming to make a comprehensive study of every example of the capital’s extensive post-war, modernist architecture housing, but in seeking out the best, the blighted and the occasionally overlooked, he has assembled an important record.
