This book is quite relevant to the 100 club brief at the moment, due to the fact that it was a local pub called The Wheatsheaf in Borough Market that was closed due to the network rail extension. The book was shot by John Ross who is an amazing photographer from london, to commemorate this local pub. It is full of the... people who went there, with each portrait telling you who the person is and what they do, it really shows the uniquness of the pub and the people who went there and what it meant to them, it also shows bits of the pub inside and out, which i think portrays the pub in quite a intimate and haunting way. I think it is a really fantastic way of showing the pub in all its glory, a piece that will be kept forever. This sort of thing could be adapted to the 100 club brief and I would love to incorporate it somehow within my designs. The book is published by Browns Editions
