Description

In 1972 the building was sold to Camden London Borough Council and gradually deteriorated until the 1990s when it was abandoned and lay derelict for several years. The building was home to Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus, Marcel Breuer, designer of modernist furniture, and Laszlo Maholy-Nagy, head teacher of art at the Bauhaus school. Three years later it was acquired by Camden Borough Council, and it gradually deteriorated until the 1990s, when it was abandoned completely. This beautiful 1 bedroom apartment is an ideal first home offering a spacious open plan Kitchen, Living and Dining Area with two windows. Please consult the facility's map page or your preferred route finding/GPS app for driving directions.

The design is founded on the idea of creating a building form that took a cue from the Isokon building’s ocean liner analogy to creates a coherent, singular building form that exploits the curve of the street. The design for this 72 unit (of which 12 affordable / HA) apartment block replaces a former car park building and launderette, later used as a community centre.

Plywood was used extensively in the fittings of the apartments; Jack Pritchard was marketing manager for the Estonian plywood company Venesta between 1926 and 1936, while he also operated the Isokon Furniture Company, originally in partnership with Wells Coates. The information on housing, people, culture, employment and education that is displayed about Lawn Road, Camden, London, NW3 2EN is based on the last census performed in the UK in 2021.

Figures for economic activity do not include those aged under 16, or those family members aged 16-18 who are in full-time education. A beautifully presented Victorian terrace offers all the character features and modern touches that make these homes so popular.

The development comprises 72 apartments of private and affordable tenure and forms an important landmark on this corner location.
