In a little over a decade, David Walker Architects have risen to an
award-winning and internationally respected status, undertaking a
remarkable number of significant projects across London, including the
headquarters for Deutsche Bank in the City of London, and for Merrill
Lynch Bank of America. As a modest sized practice their notable
achievements have covered a wide range of projects including offices,
hotels, residential, cultural and academic buildings, and as such they
sit amongst Eric Parry, Stanton Williams and David Chipperfield as
peers.
London Buildings focuses on the firm's particular expertise in
large complex urban schemes, making explicit their seemingly simple
approach to each project, focusing on its concern for context, use, and
detail. The book expands upon a number of notable projects including a
new five star hotel in Knightsbridge for Bulgari Hotels and Resorts and
the redevelopment of Milton Court, a 36-storey structure for Guildhall
School of Music and Drama.
Beyond the emphasis on the practice's
London-based projects, the book features an appendix documenting their
work on a global scale, including previous projects in the United
States, and current work in Russia.
