David Chipperfield Architects

A whopping two-volume publication presenting and analyzing the work of one of the world’s leading architects

This new monograph celebrating 40 years of practice by David Chipperfield Architects is published in double-volume format and covers a cross section of both built and unbuilt work. The monograph highlights several activities led by British Pritzker Prize Laureate Sir David Chipperfield (born 1953) throughout his career. In 1985 he established David Chipperfield Architects, which grew into a global practice with offices in London, Berlin, Milan, Shanghai and Santiago de Compostel. Around 100 design entries are accompanied by 10 critical essays and a series of articles that have been published over the years by various commentators, including Joseph Rykwert and Barry Bergdoll. Richly illustrated, both volumes feature contributions by renowned visual artists such as Candida Höfer, Thomas Struth and Friederike von Rauch. The monograph is edited by Rik Nys and designed by John Morgan Studio.
