The purpose-built library is a fine but under-appreciated example of Brutalism. Built by Hugh Lea, in 1968 the main volume shows Miesian influence with an abundance of natural light, interrupted by a concrete cuboid. The bold blocky sans serif typography of 'LIBRARY', complements perfectly the style of architecture. A neat addition for your gallery wall, or a gift for a lover of London's brutalist architecture. -sold unframed- Posted in sturdy postal tubes.
