The Barbican’s concrete towers and walkways are recognisable to many, but few are familiar with what lies inside its private boundaries: this is an urban oasis, complete with landscaped gardens, a church and a school, as well as the world-famous concert hall and arts complex. With over 30 interviews with residents new and old, accompanied by stunning photography, this book offers a chance to peer into the private homes and lives of those lucky enough to live in this iconic estate.
