MacCormac Jamieson Prichard - Building Ideas (Hardcover)

This is the first monograph on one of the most distinguished architectural practices in Britain. Sir Richard MacCormac is recognised internationally as one of the most thoughtful and original architects of today. His practice, MacCormac Jamieson Prichard, has been responsible for some of the most celebrated UK projects of recent years, ranging from new buildings for Worcester College Oxford to the Cable & Wireless headquarters in Warwickshire and from the Ruskin library in Lancaster to the new BBC headquarters in central London. These projects are presented thematically in the book and documented with drawings and photos. Essays by critics Peter Davey, Robert Harbison and Richard Sennett and commentaries by Richard MacCormac set the work in its wider intellectual context. This book is the fourth in "Right Angle's" series on leading British architects of today, initiated by Dixon Jones. This was described by the Architect's Journal as "a beautifully crafted example of how to present architecture in print; its presentation is exemplary."
