Sainsbury's Supermarket, Fourth and Fifth Avenue, Harlow, Essex. 1992-1994.
Terry Farrell's 1994 design for the edge of town development in Harlow was given an RIBA award in 1995 for its innovative design. The store, which was linked to the city centre by a pedestrian cycleway, was designed as three large white cubes with arcades beneath. Between the cubes were cylindrical blue towers and a flight of steps leading to the north entrance. The cut out primary-coloured corners of the cubes were illuminated at night.
