An illustrated celebration of the South Bank and its buildings.

In the first comprehensive overview about the architecture and design of the South Bank, Dominic Bradbury draws back the curtain on this iconic complex, providing an unrivalled insight into the buildings that populate one of London’s epicentres of art and entertainment.

Encompassing an art gallery, theatres, performance halls and a cinema, the South Bank is a focal point of art and entertainment in the heart of London. This riverside enclave has been evolving since the 1951 Festival of Britain catapulted it onto the scene, with renowned architects and designers helping to shape this space throughout the mid-century and beyond.

South Bank: Architecture & Design explores the sublime, community-focused architecture of this iconic cultural hub, providing an unrivalled insight into the buildings that populate it.
