Appreciation towards Luke Hayes for providing the following description:

Barbican Estate让人们重新回到了战后的伦敦，成为了二十世纪六十年代建筑的理想。1980年建造的温室将住宅区与剧院的台塔隔开，改善了居住的景观环境，使这里更具乌托邦意味。

Built to repopulate the post-war City of London, the Barbican Estate has become the poster girl for 1960s architectural idealism. And nowhere has its particular vision of utopia evolved more than in the conservatory, which was built in 1980 to disguise the theatre’s 100-foot fly tower and improve views for nearby residents.

温室呈帐篷形，剧院台塔不开放的阳台状部位延伸而出，其中有多种异国植物，空中花园，池塘和动物，为繁忙的都市提供了一缕宁静。这里的气候和伦敦的夏天差不多，但鸟鸣水落的声音让这里染上了热带的氛围。

The tent-shaped enclosure houses an exotic collection of tree ferns, succulents, hanging gardens, cacti, ponds and creatures and is a fitting extension to Chamberlin, Powell and Bon’s great bulbous metropolis. An adaptation of the existing building, taken over by wildlife, its impenetrable balconies form part of the fly tower. The space has the climate of a London summer, sweaty and draughty at the same time, but the bird noises, machinery, dripping water and the occasional splash of a fish make it feel authentically tropical.

Barbican的步道已被使用多年，繁茂的植物伴着迷宫般复杂的老旧步道，让人如入秘境。摄影师Luke Hayes为温室拍摄了一系列照片，展现了城市中被隐藏的空间。他说：“当人们走在Barbican中的时候，公共和私密，艺术中心和居住区域之间的界限变得不可视。你可能爬上一座楼梯，意外地发现自己到达了谁家的屋顶。难以预料让这个空间变得有趣起来，促使我用相机去记录。”

While the Barbican’s labyrinthine walkways are well-trodden, the quiet and artfully overgrown greenhouse feels like a secret. The conservatory features in a series of images of the capital’s hidden rooms taken by architectural photographer, Luke Hayes. He says, “Walking around the Barbican, the boundaries between public and private, between the arts centre and the residential spaces are invisible. When you find yourself climbing an abandoned staircase that ends up on the roof, there’s the feeling that perhaps you’re not supposed to be there, and that it might be someone’s penthouse. It’s that sense of the unexpected that makes these spaces so interesting to document.”
