EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, published in The Illustrated London News on April 3, 1965, showcases the newly opened three-storey shopping arcade at Elephant and Castle in London. The modernist architecture of the centre stands out against the urban backdrop, with its clean lines, expansive glass windows, and sleek concrete finish. The exterior view reveals a bustling scene of shoppers and onlookers, eager to explore the latest addition to the area. Upon entering the arcade, one is greeted by a bright, spacious interior filled with natural light. The open-plan design allows for easy navigation, with a variety of shops and stalls lining the perimeter. The use of natural materials, such as wood and stone, adds to the welcoming atmosphere, creating a sense of warmth amidst the contemporary surroundings. The Elephant and Castle shopping centre was a groundbreaking development for its time, representing the future of retail architecture in the 1960s. Its innovative design and forward-thinking approach to shopping spaces paved the way for similar projects across the city and beyond. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the shopping experiences of the 1960s and the architectural evolution of London's South Bank.
