On December 3rd, Ken De Cooman, co-founder of BC Architects + Studies will present the first talk in a new annual lecture series at the Barbican Centre focussed on the work of architects who are undertaking pioneering work in the field of sustainability.
The series is named in memory of the architect Rick Mather and supported by the Rick Mather and David Scrase Foundation. Rick Mather (1937-2013) was responsible for the design of such pioneering low-energy buildings as Constable Terrace (1993) at the University of East Anglia and the Sloane Robinson building (2002) at Keble College Oxford.
The Architecture Foundation has commissioned a short film describing Rick Mathers longstanding engagement with issues of sustainability. The film was directed by Tapio Snellman and written and narrated by Kester Rattenbury, whose book on the architecture of Rick Mather will be published by Lund Humphries in 2025.
