CONCRETE CONTRIBUTIONS

GreyScape is the place for the Concrete Community to share photo essays, great pictures their ideas. Here are the guidelines for submitting posts and by sending us a submission you agree all these points, so please read them carefully.

Send your submission by email to info@greyscape.com. Pictures are fundamentally important to what we’re doing so please send us good quality photos in jpeg format, minimum 3000 pixels on the shortest side. And we welcome your text alongside the photos, your thoughts and ideas and commentary. Do add movies and drawings and plans. Don’t feel that your piece has to be like others we put up on the site, express yourself. We may, of course, edit what you send us and very, very importantly you must comply with our copyright rules.

We can’t promise if or when a submission will be posted to the site but we will be keener to do so if you are only sending the project to us. We shall keep in touch with you by email.

It is important for us that we give credit to everyone who has contributed to something we publish so please send us all the names of people who have been involved. We don’t pay for anything submitted to us.

If and when we publish your submission expect us to post it or an extract on Twitter or other social and mobile media. As we said we may edit your work. Out of all this we hope to get people interested and excited, stimulated by your ideas and commenting, responding to your work with their views. Please do send us your own responses to comments. As we are the Concrete Community we shall moderate comments but we aren’t responsible for any comments. Please do send us your responses to comments that people make.

We shall be relying on you to ensure that the photographs and text you send us is your property, your intellectual property and that you own the copyright and are legally entitled to send us the material and permit us to publish it. If someone challenges this then we may remove the material. This is important because if we suffer a loss because we’ve posted something that you don’t own or have the right to let us post, you are responsible for compensating us. If you have any doubt about your rights to send us material, you should take legal advice.

We will do our best not to publish anything factually inaccurate, defamatory, abusive, obscene or in any other way we judge inappropriate. You are responsible if anything you submit is any of these things.

We took this photograph in 2018 on Naoshima, Japan We took this photograph in 2018 on Naoshima, Japan’s famous art island. For fans of Brutalism the trip was a must but one thing stood out - this.

Yayoi Kusama’s yellow pumpkin stood at the end of the pier, facing the sea. Black dots, bold familiar shape, it had become one of the island’s best-known works.

Kusama, who has died aged 97, turned the dots and repeated patterns she had seen since childhood into an artistic language recognised around the world. Her work ranged from paintings and sculpture to the hugely popular Infinity Mirror Rooms. She will be so missed. Truly an original. 

Yayoi Kusama, 1929–2026.

Completed in 1957, this is Great Arthur House, a 1 Completed in 1957, this is Great Arthur House, a 16 storey tower, the result of Geoffry Powell’s winning entry for the 1952 competition to build Golden Lane Estate on a seven acre site. It led to the creation of Chamberlin, Powell & Bon who went on to design the Barbican Estate. At 15 storeys, according to JRA who led its 2018 restoration project, ‘it was the first building to break the 100ft height limit in the City of London and for a short time was the tallest inhabited building in the UK.’ Corbusier’s influence is clear.  The curtain wall gives Great Arthur House its distinctive character, but it’s the roof that makes you look twice. That great curved lip pushes out over the top of the tower like a visor, a brilliant  bold element that gives the whole building its unmistakable silhouette.
