ArchitectureWeek Description This documents a fast-disappearing London archetype, the workers' caff, or greasy-spoon diner, built from the 1940s to the 60s, coinciding with Britain's first wave of interest in modern design. The small book illustrates over 30 establishments with original contemporary fittings, which are still functioning today and constitute a pivotal space in London public life.
