Forgotten Architecture

Looking out of bus windows and getting lost trying to find the next bus taking you home allows you to catch a mere glimpse of the city’s façade;what lies hidden behind all those walls you see? This project aims to explore all the buildings that have become empty voids within a vibrant cityscape bustling with life and sound. The project also examines buildings documented in the picture archive of the National Record office that are no longer accessible today for various reasons.
