The Kent coastal strip of Dungeness is a unique environment.
Harshly vulnerable to the elements yet protected from inland
development, it has enticed many architects, artists, photographers
and creative thinkers, including of course renowned artist and
film-maker Derek Jarman. Its exposed position makes it an extreme
place - a viewing station for the shifting sea, the passing clouds
and the changing seasons. Design writer Dominic Bradbury is your
guide to this border landscape both natural and manmade, from
shingle beaches to black houses. Dungeness is a crucible for
exciting architecture; the local vernacular includes fishermen's
cottages, lighthouses and ex-industrial structures. This mix has
attracted leading architects including Rodic Davidson, Fiona Naylor
and Brian Johnson, Simon Conder, Guy Holloway and others to
complete projects in the area. The book includes sixteen stunning
case studies of homes both converted from non-domestic buildings
and exciting new builds.
