This image captures the unique perspective of Alexandra Road Estate, with its layered balconies and repetitive modular forms creating a sense of rhythm and order. The warm tones of the building contrast with the cool blue of the sky, adding depth and dimension to the scene. The intricate details and textures of the structure are highlighted by the interplay of light and shadow.
Designed by Neave Brown, Alexandra Road Estate is celebrated for its innovative approach to social housing. The estate's design reflects a blend of modernist and Brutalist influences, characterized by its use of geometric forms, bold lines, and raw materials. The use of exposed concrete and repetitive modular forms creates a unique and visually striking aesthetic, while the integration of communal spaces and greenery fosters a sense of community.
