This recently published book looks at the most influential house designs, those that changed thinking about design. It considers the works of 21 of the most famous architects. Often extreme and uncompromising, they are vehicles for innovation, new ideas, and new ways of doing things.
Owen Hopkins is the director of the Farrell Centre, Newcastle University where we held our 2025 AGM. Along with writing contemporary and historical architectural books he has worked at Sir John Soane's Museum and the Royal Academy..
