Terence Conran on London

More about the book

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.
