Thanks for sharing this. I managed to get lost in the Barbican a few weeks ago, looking for what I *thought* was the real Thomas More house. Come to find out, it was just one of their building names. It's not the prettiest of building complexes, but I've always loved it anyway.
I just ran through several dozen of the flickr images, and I agree - some can make it gorgeous, and some can be just horrifying. But, I'm wondering if the levels of graffiti on them has anything to do with it.
Also, I'm wondering if Brutalist Architecture just looks better in black and white, or if that's just me. :-)
