Bradbury, Dominic

Chris Dyson architects : heritage and modernity / Dominic Bradbury. - 176 pages illustrations (black and white, and colour), plans 27 cm

Since Chis Dyson set up his own practice in 2004 he has gained a reputation as one of the foremost historic conservation architects, poetically adapting listed buildings for the 21s century. Yet the vigour and originality he brings to his work is far from a contemporary conservation approach. Dyson's is an architecture seemingly with no rules, yet at the same time marked by a recurring interest in the interactions between people and city, culture and community. This the first sustained critical analysis of the practice's philosophy, approach, and body of work.
