International Style modernist apartment block in Golders Green, which due to its white starkness stands out from the more timid deco-influenced blocks in the neighbourhood. The building, designed by A. V. Pilichowski, is an L-shaped three-storey block with fourteen flats, featuring a sunken garden on one side. Pilichowski was a Polish–Jewish émigré architect who also collaborated with Berthold Lubetkin on a row of houses in Plumstead. Like many refugees from Europe he anglicised his name, becoming Vivien Pilley during World War II.
