Blueprint

Affectionately monikered already, the ‘Cheesegrater’ officially topped out yesterday. Following our beautiful construction diary with Graham Stirk and Blueprint contributing editor Herbert Wright, published in our April issue, we are pleased to bring you a video following six months of the most thrilling, performative construction you’ve ever seen. The video was made by photographer Paul Raftery – also a collaborator on our print feature – and Dan Lowe, and shows time-lapse footage documenting the monumental construction of the Leadenhall from a dizzying variety of angles. Enjoy!
