International House in Brixton
Supporters of the south London borough of Lambeth’s municipal architecture created under the auspices of Ted Hollamby have launched a campaign to save a 1980s office block from redevelopment.
Twelve-storey International House was part of George Finch’s Brixton Recreation Centre development, begun in the early 1970s but only completed in 1985. While the Rec was listed at grade II in 2016, an application to include International House in the listing was rejected.
International House was originally designed to be council offices but is currently being used as “meanwhile” workspace. Lambeth wants to redevelop the site – and the nearby “Pop Brixton” temporary events space – with a long-term mixed-use residential and commercial scheme expected to deliver around 120 new homes.
