If you walk along the Regent's Canal in Camden, you will see one of the most unusual sights in London: giant plastic eggcups perched on a rooftop.
This is the former home of TV-am, the studio that launched Britain's breakfast television revolution in 1981. Designed by the legendary Sir Terry Farrell, the building was a masterclass in Postmodern wit and energy. It wasn't just a studio; it was a "Temple to Morning TV," featuring a bright sunrise archway and, famously, twelve distinct eggcups on the skyline to mark the breakfast hour.
For architecture fans, it is a pivotal moment where High-Tech met the Memphis Group style. For lovers of the 80s, it is a symbol of a colourful, optimistic era of media. And for the Vaporwave generation, its pastel colors and surreal geometry make it the ultimate aesthetic icon.
This collection celebrates the wit, the color, and the sheer joy of London's "Eggcup House."
