We went to this incredible beach, you know the ones on the coast of Cornwall where the next stop is America? It was rocky and sandy and there were huge huge waves eating up the sand. I ran into the sea and it was so cold and incredible. I felt completely at one, like everything’s existence in that one moment made sense. The waves were so high and strong they pretty much ate me. I couldn’t go to the shore because as soon as one broke, another would start dragging the water into its mouth, me along with it. They were throwing me about and I had no control but it was so exciting and satisfying.

England.
The Alton Estate, Roehampton, Wandsworth, London (circa 1958).
Additional images showing the construction and details of some of the blocks. Designed by the Housing Division of the London County Council, the estate was constructed as two halves: Alton East, and Alton West. It was completed in 1959.
The slab maisonette blocks took clear inspiration from Le Corbusier, with their pilotis and recessed facade design. The Alton West estate was used more industrialised, precast forms of construction to the earlier Alton East estate, setting a precedent for social housing construction in the UK following World War II, which would soon become dominated by precast construction systems.
