Battersea Station on my wall



Very happy with my purchase today in Camden of this Battersea Power Station print and frame for £50. View more of this photographer's work here.

What strikes me about the iconic Battersea Power station is how it manages to be ugly and awesome to look at, at the same time. It would belong perfectly in Orwell's Oceania. A behemoth in scale, this building is listed and is destined to become an entertainment complex.

An addendum: The BBC has a nice gallery of photos taken inside the building
