'Market Day' by Paul Trevor, 128pp, hardback, 170mm x 197mm.
The Brick Lane and Petticoat Lane markets have always been symbolic of the changing character of London’s East End – its diversity and vibrancy in the face of adversity. Made between 1974 and 1992, Paul Trevor’s photographs offer a vivid picture of the area before its gentrification and rapid social change.

'Barbican Residents' by Anton Rodriguez, 240pp, hardback, 151 x 199mm.
The Barbican is a radical model of city living and a symbol of post-war optimism. Today, it’s home to around 4,000 people – half the population of the City of London, the ancient heart of the capital where the building resides. But while its towers and walkways are recognisable to many, few are familiar with what lies inside. This book is a rare chance to peer beyond its concrete boundaries into the homes and lives of over 30 residents.
‘The Barbican embodies a vision of public generosity that is becoming
vanishingly rare.' – Olivia Laing, from the foreword.

'Brutalist Plants' by Olivia Broome, 208pp, hardback, 151 x 199mm.
Architects have long found ways of exploiting the contrast between the natural and the manufactured, but nowhere more keenly than in the meeting of plants and Brutalism. From angular terraces overgrown with vines to cracks that have become arteries for moss, these images tell a story of resilience – and unexpected beauty.
Olivia Broome runs the successful Brutalist Plants instagram account @brutalistplants, which has a global online following.
