Keith Williams will give a lecture on his studio’s work to the students of architecture and design at Ravensbourne College 0n 17 February 2015.
The theme of the lecture will be Keith Williams : Architecture of the Specific, sharing the title with the Monograph on Keith’s work. He will examine the themes and principles that have governed his firm’s design ethos, competition entries and realised buildings since its foundation in 2001. Keith will examine elements of architectural history setting the context for discussion on his major European buildings and will describe underlying principles such as light, form, space and materiality; elements that for him represent the essence of architecture. He will also talk of his long held belief in the power of the generative sketch and sketch model, elements which he believes are the key tools in the architect’s armoury, and which determine the direction of all the firm’s projects.
The lecture starts at 6.0opm, venue address 6 Penrose Way, Greenwich Peninsula, London SE1.
