Soton Tyres, by

The Brynmawr Rubber Factory was designed between 1946 and 1951 by The Architect's Co-Op, a group of Architecture students from the AA in London, in collaboration with the Engineer Ove Arup. It was used for producing various rubber products (mainly tyres) and is considered by many as a Modernist icon. The main production floor was spanned by nine huge concrete shell domes which were punctuated by circular rooflights. Some of the outer sections of the factory were roofed with concrete barrel vaulted shells. The building was perhaps too ambitious and it was never a commercial success. Later in its life, it was owned by Dunlop and used for manufacturing vinyl flooring and semtex, however despite being a listed building, it was demolished in 2001[1]. (wikipedia.com)
