Open House London is on this weekend. If you are curious about brutalist architecture and what was regarded as an innovative approach to housing in the 60's and 70's then you might like to take a look at the Robin Hood estate in Tower Hamlets.
A group of keen photographers have been recoding the estate over the past couple of years. The buildings are scheduled for demolition to be replaced with new homes. As part of open house an exhibition of their work is on display, together with historic images and plans from the original development, alongside plans for the future of the estate. In addition there are regular organised tours inside one of the apartments.
