Contemporary-styled housing gaining in popularity in London



























The style is squared contemporary, or so I've been told. In London, more and more builders are embracing this modernist style. Some homes come closer to the ideal than others. This home is a fine example as far as the front is concerned.

Often the interior detailing of these homes, such as this one, will not include crown mouldings, and the fixtures, such as lever-style door handles, proclaim modern while taking great pains to avoid anything that suggests nostalgia.

We see too many of these as infill housing, and they clash horribly with the older homes around them.

Not to my liking, admittedly.
