The architectural style of London was being formed gradually, during many centuries. Political and economic changes in the country and in the whole world influenced the architecture of cities and London as well. The rapid growth of cities, their industrial zones, and development of transport demanded new architectural ideas. They were necessary for building of stations, restaurants, banks and offices. Besides, people needed apartments to live in. At the beginning of the twentieth century in London the new architectural leading styles were formed. They were modernism and postmodernism. But, nevertheless, the traditional historical buildings were saved. And all this – new and ancient - gives London the unique features and an unforgettable charm.
