Trellick Tower: Concrete Models of London’s Brutalist High-Rise

Trellick Tower is one of London’s most famous Brutalist buildings. A 31-storey residential tower designed by Ernő Goldfinger and completed in 1972. Rising above West London, it is instantly recognisable for its slender service tower, dramatic sky bridges, and raw bush-hammered concrete surfaces.

Built as social housing, Trellick Tower was part of a bold vision for postwar urban living. Its design combined expressive sculptural form with functional clarity. Every detail shaped by Goldfinger’s belief in architecture as a public good. Over the decades, the building has gone from being controversial to celebrated, and is now a Grade II*-listed icon of British Brutalism.

This collection features my hand-cast concrete models of Trellick Tower, made to capture its striking silhouette, bold verticals, and distinctive tower-and-bridge profile. Whether you know it as a London landmark, a piece of design history, or a personal part of the city’s skyline, these pieces are made to honour one of the most enduring symbols of Brutalist architecture.
