Book of the Week - "Making Public Buildings" by David Adjaye. Throughout his practice Adjaye has combined the sensual and emotive with a conceptual approach to the fundamental elements of architecture. Born in Tanzania, his influences range from African art and architecture to contemporary art and music. His exploration of scale, measurement, space, light and materials has led to numerous collaborations with artists, including Olafur Eliasson and Chris Ofili. This book brings together a distinguished group of authors to reflect on Adjaye's practice and significance.
