It began with a simple idea: to explore and share the stories behind modernist housing estates through architectural history, site visits and interviews with residents about their lived experiences. In 2017, we expanded our offerings to include rental properties and, in 2023, we added a curated a collection of design-led holiday homes.

Our newest venture is listing homes for sale — a natural progression for our growing community. What sets us apart is our commitment to running a not-for-profit business model. A percentage of our sales fees and all profits are donated to housing initiatives that support those in need of secure and affordable homes.

Led by designer and author Stefi Orazi, our business thrives on personalised service and deep knowledge and enthusiasm for modernist estates. Stefi is the author of several notable books including Modernist Estates: The Buildings and the People Who Live in Them Today (Frances Lincoln, 2015), The Barbican Estate (Batsford, 2019) and Modernist Escapes (Preston, 2020). Having lived in several modernist estates since moving to London in the 1990s, her personal experience of buying and selling properties adds further depth to her expertise.
