EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies transports us to the Horizon Factory, a remarkable architectural gem nestled on Thane Road in Nottingham. The image captures the south elevation of the Imperial Tobacco building, which served as a factory and distribution center for John Player cigarettes since its construction in 1972. The sheer modernity and innovative design of this structure are truly awe-inspiring. Its sleek lines and geometric shapes effortlessly blend with the surrounding urban landscape, making it an iconic symbol of contemporary architecture in Nottingham. However, despite its undeniable beauty and significance, this once-thriving industrial hub met an unfortunate fate when it was demolished in 2018. This poignant reminder serves as a testament to the ever-changing nature of our built environment. Davies' masterful composition allows us to reflect upon not only the physical presence of this now-vanished landmark but also its historical importance within Nottingham's cultural fabric. It invites contemplation about how structures shape our collective memory and how their loss can leave an indelible mark on our cityscape. Through this photograph, we are reminded that even though buildings may come and go, their impact lingers long after they have vanished from sight - forever etched into our memories as testaments to human ingenuity and progress.
