Dagaanbieding AV Monographs 252. Grafton Architects

The work of Irish architects Shelley McNamara and Yvonne Farrell, together Grafton Architects, is capable of merging structural strength with the brutalism of their formative years, all in an ethical context demonstrated by their attention to the collective and urban realm. With a wealth of both educational and civic buildings in their repertoire, they recognise the vital importance of interweaving building and living landscape in their work: light and air are essential materials. This issue presents sixteen projects from the past two decades, including the New Campus for UTEC in Lima, the Toulouse School of Economics, the President’s House in Limerick, and Dublin City Library.
