Product Description
If New York is the Big Apple and Paris the City of Light, what is London? Terence Conran—one of the world’s foremost designers, retailers, and restauranteurs—presents his personal view of London: the ancient and modern, public and private, ethnic and indigenous. Dramatic photographs and Conran’s refreshing perspective capture every facet of this constantly evolving city: its architecture and interiors, as well as the worlds of transport, work, shopping, street life, and culture. Traveling from a blacksmith’s workshop in Hammersmith to a training center for acrobats in Hoxton, the Brick Lane market to the Burlington Arcade in Piccadilly, anglophiles will delight.
