商品簡介
Maguire & Murray was a small-scaled but well-respected and widely-emulated architectural practice known for innovations in church, school, and university design. Robert Maguire, a trained architect, and Keith Murray, a trained silversmith, met in the early 1950s and actively collaborated for the next three decades. Part of the new Brutualist movement, influenced by Japanese and Scandinavian architecture, and rooted in Christianity and the English Arts and Crafts movement, they were known for their ability to combine pragmatic idealism with economy and spirituality. This history of their collaboration is illustrated with photographs of building interiors and exteriors, blueprints, drawings, and design models. A list of works and bibliography is included as well.
