David Rosenberg (architect, urban designer, communicator and gallerist) is a seasoned tour guide of the Barbican and Golden Lane Estates (both designed by Chamberlin, Powell and Bon), having led tours of both places for the Twentieth Century Society, The Getty Foundation, MSc and PhD students of UCL among others
