| Summary: | A timely overview of the pioneering work of the acclaimed Irish architectural practice. Dublin-based Grafton Architects (founded by Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara in 1978) has built up an impressive body of work over its forty-year history, ranging from houses in Ireland to public buildings in Italy, France, the United Kingdom and Peru. In this long-overdue study, respected architectural writer and critic Robert McCarter presents sixty of Grafton's built and unbuilt projects and brings to light their principled and ethical approach, which is committed to making a profound difference to the lives of their buildings' users. |
