Lost Futures: The Disappearing Architecture of Post-War Britain

How we love Lost Futures, the Royal Academy's concise new book documenting 35 architecturally and philosophically important buildings erected in the UK between 1945 and 1979 which have since fallen into disrepair, been demolished or been altered so radically that they no longer resemble the originals. Pictured here is the Pimlico Secondary School on Lupus Street in Westminster, London. Photographed in 1971, it was designed by architect John Bancroft for the Greater London Council of the Department of Architecture & Civic Design in 1970 and demolished in 2010. Other buildings are by Ernö Goldfinger, James Stirling, Alison and Peter Smithson, Team 4 and Ahrends, to name a few.
