The conspicuous glazed volume, which houses the luxury private flats of Foster and Partners' Albion Riverside, have become a prominent landmark on the River Thames, in full view from London's Chelsea Embankment. Stephen Archer describes how this signature building contrasts with, and is reinforced by, a new block of affordable housing, also by Fosters, for the Peabody Trust.
