A.D. Architectural Design Project Awards 1982: British Architecture (Academy Editions / St. Martin’s Press, 1982) presents the results of a survey of best British architecture at the turn of the 1980s. The Architectural Design Project Awardees included Zaha Hadid, Terry Farrell Partnership, Darbourne and Darke, John Outram, Quinlan Terry, Nicholas Grimshaw and Partners, and many other key players in the stylistically and ideologically turbulent transition years from modernism to postmodernism. Besides project presentations, the book contains essays by Derek Walker, Peter Cook, Charles Jencks, Anthony McIntyre, Paul Oliver, and Richard Reid.
The text is in English. The book is richly illustrated with photographs and architectural drawings.
