BT Tower IV by Stefi Orazi
Stefi Orazi is no stranger to this site and neither will be the architectural icon in her latest print: BT Tower IV.
While other variants on the print have shown the tower at night, in the day and even using glow-in-the-dark ink, this is possibly its glitziest incarnation yet – printed with metallic foil. Stefi has also stated it'll be the last in this series so, if you've previously missed out, we advise snapping up one of the 100 in the edition now.
The print costs £85.

Greetings cards featuring classic British buildings from Obiko
From the De La Warr Pavilion to the Post Office Tower, Obiko's range of greeting cards includes many of the British buildings that regularly feature in various forms on this site.
Obiko are a Hastings based company and their seaside location clearly has a strong influence on their designs. The buildings shown are actually part of a series called 'seagull sites'. Happily, they're favourites with us, as well as the gulls, and also show Battersea Power Station and Brighton's Palace Pier, amongst others.
Each card is executed in the same delicate style and costs £2.90.
