THE HEYGATE ESTATE - HEYGATE ABSTRACTED (ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHY PROJECT)

The Heygate Estate in Elephant and Castle, South London was infamous when inhabited, due to numerous social problems. Now that the estate is empty, can the architecture once more show through?

The estate was photographed and re-photographed over the course of one year using tradional architectural photography techniques. The spaces within the photographs were then analysed and augmented. (All images copyright Simon Kennedy, London Architectural Photographer.)
