1939 2 WILLOW ROAD, LONDON BY ERNÖ GOLDFINGER

Hungarian-born architect and designer Goldfinger needs no introduction for Londoners: he created some of the capital’s most iconic Brutalist landmarks, including the striking Trellick and Balfron Towers. His own home, however, nestled in leafy Hampstead, north London, is less imposing. It’s the central portion of a Modernist terrace, constructed from reinforced concrete and clad in red brick. A spiral staircase sits at the heart of the home, designed by Danish-born British engineer Ove Arup, while a mixture of furniture designed by Goldfinger lines the minimalist interior. Like his artsit wife Ursula, Goldfinger loved modern art and had a collection of 20th-century work by the likes of Duchamp and Henry Moore, which is still on view today. Open Wednesday to Sunday (nationaltrust.org.uk).
