Paul Raftery, architectural photographer, and Dan Lowe, director, have collaborated to create a timelapse film showing the final weeks of construction of The Shard tower in London Bridge, the tallest skyscraper in the United Kingdom.
It was shot over many long days during the early months of 2012, from locations spanning from Greenwich Park to Hampstead Heath.
Music by George McLeod.
I was sort of hoping for a time-lapse sequence of the entire construction, but this is nice anyway. Seen on the Guardian, in a feature on the building and an interview with Renzo Piano.
