    Chapter 2 From Architectural Concept to Built Form Introduction The following two chapters lay out the history of the Brunswick’s design, development and redevelopment over a period of 30 years, assembled through interviews, archival and bibliographic research (Appendices 4 & 5). The account reveals the contrasts and conflicts between different accounts and interpretations of the intentions behind, and evolution of the Brunswick scheme. It underlines the fundamental difficulty of ‘freezing’ a building in terms of its art historical evaluation, and the complexity of the process, involving many different parties apart from the architect as ‘author’, by which a work of architecture evolves from concept to material reality. So, although the Brunswick constitutes a powerful aesthetic and formal image, which has been canonised through the Listing process on the grounds of specific art historical criteria, it also constitutes a highly contested cultural artefact which brings together many different narratives besides the official discourse. The history of the Brunswick is particularly significant in terms of the questions it raises around the whole concept of ‘ownership’ as it relates to cultural artefacts. It stands out in one specific and quite unique aspect, which was the return of the original ‘author’ to resume work on his ‘own’ work 30 years after being forced to resign from the job, leading to a remarkable conflict of ownership claims. The architect’s claim to a moral right of aesthetic judgement and personal reinterpretation was vehemently opposed by critics and heritage spokespeople who claimed the building as an untouchable part of the collective national heritage, by the residents, claiming individual and collective territorial rights, and by the commercial firms, claiming the right of property ownership and associated freedom to redevelop it however their commercial objectives dictated.

  • London's Urban Landscape
    London’s Urban Landscape London’s London’s Urban Landscape is the first major study of a global city to adopt a materialist perspective and stress the significance of place and the built environment to the urban landscape. Edited by Christopher Tilley, the volume is inspired by phenomenological thinking and presents fine-grained ethnographies of the practices of everyday life in London. In doing so, it charts a unique perspective on the city that integrates ethnographies of daily life with an analysis of material culture. The first part of the volume considers the residential sphere of urban life, discussing in detailed case studies ordinary residential streets, housing estates, suburbia and London’s mobile ‘linear village’ of houseboats. The second part analyses the public sphere, including ethnographies of markets, a park, the social rhythms of a taxi rank, and graffiti and street art. London’s Urban Landscape returns us to the everyday lives of people and the manner in which they understand their lives. The deeply sensuous character of the embodied experience of the city is invoked in the thick descriptions of entangled relationships between people and places, and the paths of movement between them. What stories do door bells and house facades tell us about contemporary life in a Victorian terrace? How do antiques acquire value and significance in a market? How does living in a concrete megastructure relate to the lives of the people who dwell there? These and a host of other questions are addressed in this fascinating book that will London’s appeal widely to all readers interested in London or contemporary urban life.
