Brief Overview:
Part of the original core of Brunel University’s campus, the Lecture Centre is one of the most recognisable Brutalist buildings in British higher education. Its modular concrete form was designed to house lecture halls and teaching spaces in a compact, efficient footprint. It now stands as a protected landmark and a lasting symbol of mid-century academic architecture.

Making my concrete model

Brunel Lecture Theatre, London

Film fans know it from A Clockwork Orange, and Brunel graduates know it from exams. This Brunel Lecture Theatre miniature concrete model is a piece for both. Richard Sheppard, Robson & Partners completed the Lecture Centre in Uxbridge in 1967, and its compact, modular concrete form is a landmark of British Brutalism on a university campus. This concrete model of the Brunel Lecture Centre is 7.5cm across, sized for a desk, shelf or studio table. It's for Brunel alumni and staff, engineers and designers who studied there, Kubrick fans and lovers of Brutalist architecture. As a graduation gift or a gift for an architect, it means more than a framed certificate. Each miniature concrete building is hand-cast in solid concrete, with its own weight and small marks.
