A close-up view of a tall, brutalist concrete building with vertical columns and geometric patterns. The weathered façade features deep grooves, angular cut-outs, and repeating rectangular forms. The sky above is overcast, adding a sombre tone. A concrete wall with a grid of geometric cut-outs in various shapes lets light and glimpses of sky through, casting shadows and creating a pattern of rectangles and squares across the surface. A tall, weathered concrete structure with a faded green door and peeling paint displays a large blue “PRIMARK” sign at the top. The building stands on a rain-soaked rooftop car park under a grey, overcast sky. A wet, empty rooftop car park under a cloudy sky features a tall, dark brick tower in the centre, surrounded by white, weathered concrete barriers and posts. The scene looks desolate and industrial, with reflections visible on the rain-soaked ground.
