More about the book

The book explores 19th-century London's architectural evolution as it transformed into a global financial hub and center of industrial capitalism. It highlights the significance of architectural models as vital communication tools, enabling architects, politicians, and the public to visualize the city's expansion and its new infrastructures. Drawing from extensive research in archives, museums, and contemporary publications, it delves into how these models shaped perceptions of urban development and the built environment during this transformative era.
