JO UNDERHILL / STRUCTURALEYE

Last month I photographed a beautiful attic extension designed by Coppin Dockray Architects and styled by Charlotte Buccerio.
We wanted to focus on the materials used, texture, colour and the gorgeous light that filled the space in the morning and evening. To view the whole project please visit - structuraleye.

The Lookout is a new cafe, hide and facilities situated behind Holkham Beach, North Norfolk. It sits beautifully within the landscape of Holkham which includes sand dunes, pine forests and looks out to a beautiful nature reserve. It is a cylindrical form with the outer screen of fins made from Larch. It was a beautiful structure to photograph and I wanted to highlight the conversation it has with the landscape and those big skies of North Norfolk.

It was designed by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios and Lucas+Western Architects. The whole project can be seen at structuraleye.

The little known Brutalist gem the Spiritualist Church, Brighton was built in 1965 and designed by Bev Pike of Overton & Partners Architects. It was a beautiful building to photograph and the church very kindly gave me permission to photograph inside which was fascinating. It consists of kidney and oval shaped sections connected by a lower rectangle corridor which forms the main entrance. There are no windows at the front so light is drawn into the two halls by skylights. There was a vast library of books on mediumships and seances which I have always been fascinated with. The building is a great addition to my Beautiful Brutalism project.

I recently photographed the beautiful new exhibition by ceramicist Jennifer Lee at Kettle's Yard, Cambridge. It is her first UK show since 1994 and it shows work spanning 40 years. The exhibition was designed by Jamie Fobert Architects and after several visits to Lee's studio they decided the space of the studio should also be shown in the exhibition. They decided a single surface the exact height of Jennifer's workbench would be 'a powerful yet minimal response.'

To learn more about the inspiration behind the design of the exhibition please visit Jamie Fobert's website.

Unfortunately Welbeck Street Car Park has been completely covered so demolition can start. After 2 years photographing this stunning building my project has sadly come to an end. So it's lovely to see the project featured on Dezeen. The whole article can be seen here.

Lovely to see the beautiful St Teresa's Sixth Form Centre designed by IF_DO Architects which I photographed last year recently featured on Dezeen. The whole feature can be seen here.
