Book

Chamberlin, Powell and Bon

Chamberlin, Powell and Bon, the first book on the architects of the Golden Lane Estate and Barbican, written by Elain Harwood and published by RIBA Publications with English Heritage and the Twentieth Century Society, is to be published on 8 November. 

Based on new archival research and interviews with the architects’ families and surviving partners and their assistants, Chamberlin, Powell and Bon gives incisive accounts of the development of these two key post-war estates.  Together the estates illustrate the changing styles of post-war architecture in Britain and offer a model for modern urban living today.  The book also describes in detail CP&B’s other major commissions, beginning with Joe Chamberlin’s work at the Festival of Britain and including New Hall, Cambridge (now Murray Edwards College) and their major extensions to Leeds University, which show their interest in technical innovation as well as planning on a grand yet liveable scale. 

Chamberlin, Powell and Bon is beautifully illustrated with new photographs by James O. Davies and drawings from the architects’ newly revealed archive, most previously unpublished.

Elain Harwood is a historian with English Heritage and an authority on post-war architecture.

Hi.

I added a friends request, but have not had a response.  I have always supported our local police, but, if it's not 'appropriate' for you to add me, then can you let me know.

Thanks.
