Opis

Since its inception in 1996, jamie Fobert Architects (jFA) has had a reputation for innovative and inspiring design, including residential, commercial and cultural work. The practice has demonstrated a consistent approach to resolving the ambitions of the client and the complexities of the site into a tactile architecture of volume, material and light. This book explores jFA's method of working by examining a selection of the practice's work from two perspectives, looking at completed buildings as embedded spaces and examining 'up-close' details and materiality. The practice's residential projects, located both nationally and internationally, are celebrated for their sensitivity to the historic context which they sympathetically partner with contemporary design concerns. Retail projects, for clients including Givenchy, Selfridges and versace, have offered the opportunity to explore new ideas and experiment with materiality. The firm has also worked with a number of artists and key arts institutions such as Tate Britain, Tate Modern, Frieze Art Fair, v&A and the new Center for Contemporary Culture in Moscow. The practice has won three major public commissions for extensions to Tate St Ives, Charleston Farmhouse and Kettle's Yard Gallery, and garnered awards such as the Manser Medal and RIBA and English Heritage Award for Building in an Historic Context. Following his graduation from the University of Toronto, Fobert went on to head David Chipperfield Architects' Berlin office before teaching at leading European architectural schools and establishing his own practice.
