The giant architectural practices that set the pace today rarely
have the capacity to devote their attention to a single house. This
collection of six houses is the product of Denton Corker Marshall,
an architectural practice that over the past 40 years has built on
the largest scale across Asia, Australia and Europe. They have
designed representational buildings such as embassies and law
courts. They have built skyscrapers, conceived masterplans and
created landmarks and landscapes. They have built museums, war
memorials, convention centres, and hotels. Works such as the
Manchester Civil Justice Centre, the Melbourne Museum and Embassies
in Beijing, Tokyo and Jakarta demonstrate the practice's
significant contribution to the global architectural scene, but -
as they say of themselves - from time to time they enjoy the
opportunity to design houses. This monograph presents a collection
of houses built for friends and colleagues, for people who work
together, who share values and relationships and priorities. The
houses display, as Deyan Sudjic writes in his introduction, a
delicacy and precision that comes close to jewellery.
