Perambulation No 10 - A Walking Guide to Modernist Housing in Shoreditch to Victoria Park - Stefi Orazi 

The route covers much of Bethnal Green, an area in the East End of London that suffered from extensive bomb damage and slum housing. The post-war drive for urban renewal saw its council commission the most avant-garde architects to solve the housing problem, including Denys Lasdun and Berthold Lubetkin. They produced some of the best examples of Modernist housing.

The folded guide comprises a map on one side with a detailed walking route on the reverse.

Perambulations is a series of carefully curated neighbourhood walks exploring Modernist housing. The series was initiated by Stefi Orazi during the Covid-19 lockdown. After she began sharingpictures of her daily walks on social media, Stefi decided to create printed guides of the walks, so anyone could enjoy them — alongside learning a little bit of the history of our built environment.
