Through a series of expertly curated guided tours and interactive maps from the publishers of ‘the modernist’ magazine, you can experience the best of modernist architecture along with some hidden gems and back street surprises.
Starting with our home town of Manchester, we have devised a collection of tours to guide you along the way.
We will regularly add new tours and cities in the coming months.
Whether you are a fan of Bauhaus, Brutalism or anything in between, you will find something to inspire and delight you on these tours.
