Architecture Experience and Thought: Projects by Tony Fretton Architects (Architecture Landscape Urbanism #1)

Tony Fretton's architecture practice is closer than most to the London art world. Dramatic and provisional, it contains a subversive sense of street art that seems inimical to architecture. A central concern is with the relationship between people and the material world. Architecture, Experience and Thought explores these themes in six recent buildings by Fretton (some completed, some frozen at proposal stage): the Sway Centre for Visual Arts, Quay Arts Centre, Laban Centre for Dance, Open Hand Studios and two houses. Critical assessements of the work are provided by Mark Cousins and Kenneth Frampton.Cousins, Mark is the author of 'Architecture Experience and Thought: Projects by Tony Fretton Architects (Architecture Landscape Urbanism #1)' with ISBN 9781870890939 and ISBN 1870890930.
