About the Book

Clay strata and brick-earth lay dormant under timber frame houses and civic landmarks built of stone. So it was, until Royal brick-making brought Flemish craftsmen to palaces, civic halls and noble residences followed on where kings and queens had trod.

A modulating of the environment is a key role for Architecture – including the arts improves those humanist relational aspects. I have gained experience with two leading Practices, completing designs for high end residential London Townhouse schemes with interior courtyards for restaurants and shops, smaller public assembly venues and private residence and studios within vibrant Cityside developments. All projects where conservation combines with new design interventions.
