Light is the material of Architecture. Ian Ritchie is one of the
UK’s most visionary architects, and remarkable for synthesising
multiple creative disciplines to bring the essence of his
architectural projects into focus. A poet and artist as well as an
architect, Ritchie distills his ideas into verse and pithy
aphorisms that probe the complexities of architectural commissions
and the art of composition. In this volume, Ritchie's aphorisms and
musings revolve around the topic of light, a fundamental element in
the way we perceive both the natural and the built world. They are
accompanied by his calligraphic etchings and illustrations of the
architecture that emerges from them. This illuminating blend of
poetry and design is a trove of inspiration for anyone seeking to
expand their understanding of the creative process, and offers a
fresh perspective on the profound interplay between thought,
practice, and the radiant world of light.
