Book Description
Turning to traditional design in the early 1970s, when it was unfashionable. Adam was granted a scholarship at the British School in Rome.
In the following years his research, studies and writing backed up his growing portfolio of classical and traditional projects. He became one of the major spokesmen for the emerging body of traditional designers in the UK and abroad in the 1980s, defending and promoting traditional design in the face of savage opposition from the modernist architectural establishment.
At the same time, he developed a unique position by drawing from the entire classical tradition – from ancient Greece to the 1930s – in a search for continuing relevance and modernity.
From 2000 onwards Adam was instrumental in the establishment of the Traditional Architecture Group, the International Network for Traditional Building, Architecture & Urbanism (INTBAU), the council for European Urbanism, and the Academy of Urbanism, which have firmly established traditional architecture as part of the UK architectural scene.
Adam is now confident that traditional architecture and urbanism will continue to be recognised, if not actively supported, by the profession. He hopes it will develop further to take a more prominent place in the improvement of the built environment and as a major challenge to the orthodoxy of modernism.
