The Power of Process explores Michael Pearson's fascinating career, from his work in British architecture in the 1960s and 70s through to his innovative projects of the 90s to the present. Michael Pearson is past President of the Architectural Association, London's prestigious architecture school. The Power of Process sets out the importance of Michael Pearson and his work, from his initial work within the family firm, his teaching and presidency of the Architectural Association, to small-scale artists' studios and large-scale hospital planning, to the first thorough appreciation of Burne House, his most important work.
The title The Power of Process, refers to Michael Pearson's abiding concern for 'process' in modern architecture -- that is, how the conception and making of architecture is driven by information systems, the inter-connectedness between a buildings use, how it is manufactured and, importantly how its use can adapt and change over time. As such, his interest in process puts him at the forefront of the British High-Tech architecture, more famously associated with Richard Rogers and Norman Foster.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Power of Process explores Michael Pearson's fascinating career, from his work in British architecture in the 1960s and 70s through to his innovative projects of the 90s to the present. Michael Pearson is past President of the Architectural Association, London's prestigious architecture school. The Power of Process sets out the importance of Michael Pearson and his work, from his initial work within the family firm, his teaching and presidency of the Architectural Association, to small-scale artists' studios and large-scale hospital planning, to the first thorough appreciation of Burne House, his most important work. The title The Power of Process, refers to Michael Pearson's abiding concern for 'process' in modern architecture -- that is, how the conception and making of architecture is driven by information systems, the inter-connectedness between a buildings use, how it is manufactured and, importantly how its use can adapt and change over time. As such, his interest in process puts him at the forefront of the British High-Tech architecture, more famously associated with Richard Rogers and Norman Foster. The Power of Process clearly sets out the importance of Michael Pearson and his work, from the work of his grandfather and father, both well-known architects in the late nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth century, to his initial work within the family firm, his teaching and presidency of the Architectural Association, to small-scale artists studios and large-scale hospital planning, to the first thorough appreciation of Burne House, his most important work. Pearson was one of the first practising architects to employ computer technology for generating designs and mapping out building plans. He pushed tirelessly for innovation in this area and helped make such technology commonplace in architectural practices today. The Power of Process is handsomely illustrated throughout, with work stretching from the Neo-Classical origins of the family firm as evinced in the work of Michael Pearson's grandfather through Burne House and other key works from the 1970s to his current preoccupations with 'good design'.
