A fascinating new take on the architecture of Adjaye, exploring his
approach to five building materials through his projects David
Adjaye is one of the most in-demand architects today, known for his
thoughtful interpretation of public spaces. In order to understand
him as an architect, you must look at his projects through the lens
of material - a crucial consideration in his practice. Organized
into five sections - Stone/Concrete, Wood, Metal, Glass, and Rammed
Earth - Alchemy reimagines the traditional architect monograph by
examining the importance of material in architecture, a study vital
to Adjaye and his design process. In 2021, David Adjaye was awarded
the RIBA Gold Medal, and he was among seven global leaders to
receive a TIME100 Impact Award in 2022. The book features over 30
public, commercial, and residential projects around the world, from
his 2001 Concrete Garden in London to the Amoako Boafo Gallery in
Accra, Ghana, built with rammed earth and completed in 2022.
