{"product_id":"barbican","title":"Barbican","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis image is of an area in the world famous Barbican in London. It is a striking example of Brutalist architecture, built in the 1960s–70s on a site heavily bombed during the Blitz. Designed by Chamberlin, Powell and Bon, it was conceived as a “city within a city,” combining residential towers and terrace blocks with cultural, commercial, and leisure spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts bold concrete forms, raised walkways, and dramatic use of water and greenery create a distinctive urban landscape. At its heart is the Barbican Centre, Europe’s largest multi-arts venue, housing concert halls, theatres, cinemas, and galleries, as well as the Guildhall School of Music \u0026amp; Drama.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday the Barbican is both a Grade II-listed architectural landmark and a thriving cultural hub, known for its stark aesthetic and ambitious vision of post-war urban living. This image was taken as part of an ongoing street and architectural project of the places that I visit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tom Parsons","offers":[{"title":"70 x 103.9 cm","offer_id":53266806997324,"sku":"565896-30671949-700000-1039000","price":279.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"80 x 118.8 cm","offer_id":53266807030092,"sku":"565896-30671949-800000-1188000","price":349.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"90 x 133.6 cm","offer_id":53266807062860,"sku":"565896-30671949-900000-1336000","price":439.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0866\/3767\/4828\/files\/32b2576e-0821-46e3-bea0-e4ddc642cd7c.png?v=1756990679","url":"https:\/\/shop.tomparsons.co.uk\/products\/barbican","provider":"Parsons Atelier","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
