He’s the man, the man with the Midas touch
This somewhat innocuous modernist building was designed by and the home of architect Erno Goldfinger. His name was used in the James Bond film. It’s worth a visit on a rainy day, especially one of the guided tours in which you learn about the functional design behind the aesthetics.
Royal Festival Hall to the Royal Opera House

This was followed by an evening at the Royal Opera House (my first visit!) watching ballet from the back. View photos Royal Festival Hall to the Royal Opera House
