Bright Underground Spaces - The Railway Stations of Charles Holden

There have been two periods of radically new architecture on the London Underground.

The first was between the mid-1920s and the start of the second world war, and the second in recent times, 

typified by the stations built for the Jubilee line extension.

 

This book looks at the first of these two periods and in particular at the work of Charles Holden, who brought

light and space to Underground stations on a scale that went far beyond the designs of his predecessors and even some

of his contemporaries.
