02 - 23rd November - Richard Scott Surface Architects 6pm Room 1.53 Portland Building







Surface are an award-winning practice based in London. They specialise in bold, exciting contemporary architecture.
"Surface deserves to get a seriously big commission somewhere"
Hugh Pearman, Sunday Times architectural critic
"canned energy, fit to burst'
Kevin McCloud, presenter of Channel 4's Grand Design's
“Surface maintain fantastic enthusiasm and are full of ideas to cheer up the dull, London, urban, grey scene.”
Peter Cook, professor of architecture at UCL’s Bartlett School 1991-2004

Surface was formed by Richard in 1996, in collaboration with philosopher Jeremy Weate and architect Kristen Whittle. Their first project ‘Soft-space’ won first prize in the Shinkenchiku-Sha Residential Design Award in Japan and ‘Aquaphilia’ was one of the ‘Ideal Rooms’ exhibited at the RIBA in 1997. At this time Richard worked for Will Alsop and taught History & Theory at the Bartlett and the AA with Jeremy Weate.
