Stirling and Wilford American Buildings
Considered one of the most important international architectural practices of the twentieth century, Stirling + Wilford made an exceptional contribution to contemporary architecture. With early work in the UK and then Europe, from the late 1970s the practice designed buildings at four American universities: Harvard, Rice, Cornell and UC Irvine, as well as a number of unbuilt projects. Despite the significance of these projects, until now the contribution of the practice's work in the US to the development of late twentieth-century architecture has never been fully appraised. Stirling + Wilford: American Buildings reassesses the importance of this body of work, establishing the legacy of the later American work of one of the twentieth century's most significant architectural practices.
