The Barbican Centre is one of my favourite places to visit, and work in London. I don't often like to tell people this, in case it suddenly fills up with people.
It's perfect, as it's really quiet, has a coffee bar, and above all else is a truly inspiration place to spend the day. If you get bored of work or catch writers-block, you can take a wander around it's very 'different' architecture, visit the greenhouse if it's open, or go and see whichever exhibition they happen to have on.
Last year, The Barbican ran a Constructed Worlds series - works reflecting various 20th and 21st century architecture. As part of the series, one of our favourites, Tom Pigeon, designed three prints inspired by photographers, who in turn have been inspired by architects.
Still with us? Good. Take a good look, we know you'll find them just as impressive as we do.
Great minimalist poster!
