50 ICONIC BUILDINGS FROM THE 21ST CENTURY THAT DEFINE LONDON, FROM SUBLIME PUBLIC GARDENS TO THE RIDICULOUS GHERKIN
Explore highlights of contemporary architecture built across London from 2000 to 2025 with this two-sided map by Olly Wainwright. The map features 50 projects, from museums and major redevelopments to social housing and urban gardens, alongside an introduction, building details and original photography.
High on Millennium fever, the 21st century architecture of London began with a big cultural bang, seeing major public projects like Norman Foster's Great Court at the British Museum, Herzog & de Meuron's Laban Dance Centre and Alsop & Störmer's Peckham Library burst on to the scene. The confidence was mirrored on the skyline, with the jaunty arrival of the Gherkin - a startling form that unleashed a menagerie of ever stranger towers, each with their own nickname.
London Contemporary Architecture Map is the latest in Blue Crow Media's growing collection of London architecture maps including titles dedicated to Brutalism, Art Deco, Modernism, Postmodernism and the churches of Christopher Wren and Nicholas Hawksmoor.
