Another postmodern design on my hit list is this eccentric property commissioned by Janet Street-Porter, ubiquitous TV executive of the 1980s.
It's located just round the corner from Farringdon Station, at the junction of Britton Street and Albion Place.
There's a fascinating little 10 min feature on the BBC iPlayer in which Ms. Street-Porter herself gives a tour of the inside of the house, which is just as quirky as the outside:

The building is anchored by three towers, the tallest of which stands at 295 feet, making it the second tallest building in the city. The tallest being the historic Coral Gables Biltmore Hotel. The west tower is adorned with a 12-foot tall working weathervane that is an exact replica of the original “Lady of Faith” weathervane atop the Giralda Tower in Seville, Spain. The west tower also holds a carillon that plays nearly 2,000 hymns, bells, tolls, and classic chimes to mark the hour.
The moment you enter the Alhambra Towers lobby, you are enveloped in color and texture. The floor is imported stone tile from Italy and the Etruscan-styled alabaster chandeliers above are from Spain. There’s a large double fountain in the center of the room and elegant sculptures along the edges. The light shining through the original stained glass from a church that once stood on the property, recycled into the design of the room, exudes a warm, somewhat ethereal glow.
In honor of the city’s first post office, which inhabited the site before the church, Allen Morris brought in original restored brass mailboxes and a 1920’s letter dropbox from the historic McGraw Hill building in Chicago. There’s also an antique shoeshine stand and an old-fashioned telephone.
On display in the lobby are several one-of-a-kind paintings by Carlos and Guillermo Arriola that pay homage to the Spanish cathedrals that ultimately influenced the building’s design and architecture.
There’s no other word for the art and architecture of Alhambra Towers other than extraordinary!

The feeling that plagues art students when they realize all the work they have ever done is postmodern and not as original as they first thought. They may find themselves thinking "How can I do something that's not postmodern?" - which is sadly the most postmodern move they could make because postmodernism is a critique of previous art movements and/or cultural phenomena.
