EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking interior view captures the essence of the Kettles Yard Gallery extension in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, designed by the renowned British architect Leslie Martin. Built in the aftermath of World War II, this post-war architectural masterpiece is a testament to the innovative spirit of the time. The brutalist style, characterized by its raw, unadorned concrete surfaces, is on full display here. The use of concrete, a material that was both abundant and versatile in the post-war era, allowed architects like Martin to create structures that were functional, durable, and aesthetically bold. The extension to the Kettles Yard Gallery, completed in 1966, was part of a larger project to expand the gallery's space and accommodate its growing collection. The interior is characterized by its clean lines, open spaces, and abundant natural light, which floods in through the large windows and skylights. The extension's design is a perfect example of Martin's belief in the importance of creating functional, accessible spaces for art. The gallery's expansive, open-plan layout allows visitors to move freely through the space, engaging with the artwork in a way that is both immersive and intuitive. Despite its modernist design, the Kettles Yard Gallery extension has become an integral part of the Cambridge community. It is a cherished cultural institution that continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. This photograph offers a glimpse into the beauty and sophistication of this remarkable building, a true architectural gem of the post-war era.
