Broadgate Pavilion (3 Broadgate)

Broadgate Pavilion, also known as 3 Broadgate, stands as a small three storey building wedged between Broadgate Circle and Finsbury Avenue Square in the heart of London. Architects Orms reclad the original structure with tiles that ripple and undulate across the exterior, hung in a way that nods to the site's history as tenter grounds, where medieval cloth makers once stretched fabric out to dry. That texture alone makes the building worth a visit during a London photo adventure. A vast arched opening cuts through the ground floor, glazed and open enough that you are meant to walk through the building rather than around it, linking the two public squares on either side. You can shoot from either square and use the arch as a unique frame for either the curve of Broadgate Circle or the open grounds of Finsbury Avenue Square. The intricate tile pattern deserves a closer look too, so don't just shoot the whole facade from a distance. Soft, overcast light suits the tiles well, keeping the undulations readable without harsh shadows across the surface. Inside the archway sits a public coffee shop, so you will likely catch some daily life through the glass alongside the architecture itself. This building sits right in the middle of one of London's busiest pedestrianised office campuses so if you are interested in street photography it is also worth a stop. (City of London, London, UK)
