Structure and Style cover

This book provides the first study of approaches to appraising and conserving mainstream architecture of the twentieth century - commercial buildings, industrial buildings and housing. Architects, surveyors and conservationists are now appreciating the extent of this challenge. Sufficient research and practical progress has now been undertaken in this field to provide useful material for a text which will be both timely and of broad appeal.

'Extremely interesting reading with areas and issues of this this subject previously unpublicised and now made available for public consumption ... very useful additions to any professional surveyor, architect or engineer's bookshelf, who is or will become involved with the conservation of twentieth century buildings, their care and management.' - Building Conservation Journal No.17, 1997

'I enjoyed reading the book and found much of it instructive.' - John Winter, The Architect's Journal, October 1997

'A source of great inspiration ... readable and informative.' - Urban Design Quarterly
