de Irina Davidovici

Colquhounery' is a commemorative volume celebrating the life and work of the architect and architectural historian Alan Colquhoun, who died in December 2012. Testimonials from friends, colleagues and students are gathered together alongside original photographs, sketches, letter transcripts, biographical and archival data tracing Colquhoun's career as an architect, writer and educator on both sides of the Atlantic. Launched in tandem with a celebratory AA event, this anthology represents a collective effort to remember the work and the man responsible for some of the most penetrating and clear-sighted architectural criticism of the last 60 years --
