'Gems of British Brutalism and Modernism are under threat from time and tide, as much as the wrecking ball - luckily, photographer Simon Phipps has been documenting these harsh beauties for his book, Concrete Poetry . . . From the Denys Wilkinson Building to the Blackwall Tunnel's ventilation shafts, the UK is studded with post-war concrete odes to a better tomorrow. For those of us who don't have the time to trot around the country, ticking these pioneering structures off their list, Phipps' book is an essential coffee-table tour.' Wired magazine
