Description
by Wilkinson Eyre (Author)
Having stood empty for almost forty years since being decommissioned in 1983, Battersea Power Station reopened its doors to great fanfare in 2022.
Originally designed in the 1930s by renowned architect, Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, the Grade II* Listed Power Station's thirty-year neglect had created a modern ruin. It was in a critical state of disrepair when it was purchased in 2012 by an ambitious consortium of Malaysian investors who entrusted architects WilkinsonEyre with the design of its repair and regeneration. Battersea Power Station - The Architectural Rebirth of a Romantic Ruin charts the practice's journey and processes to transform the building - one of the largest brick structures in the world and one of the UK's most recognizable landmarks - from twentieth century industrial relic to the sustainable heart of a thriving new London district.
