Welbeck Street Car Park

Designed by Michael R. Blampied & Partners.

Nominated by Sam Jacob as an example of 'Lesser Known Architecture' for 2013's London Festival Of Architecture...

"Welbeck Street is qualmless, a multistorey car park celebrating itself as though it were the crowning glory of civilisation. Designed for Debenhams in 1971, it sits like a block-sized sculpture, its elongated diamond-shaped prefabricated concrete panels locked together into mesmeric and scaleless pattern that genuflects to the oddities of its historical boundary."
