Summary:

Eyre and Wilkinson, the twice Stirling-prize-winners, are developing a process of design in all their work. In this recording they cover many themes - art and science linked to a study of nature; architecture and engineering; lightness; structure that responds to the environment; exploring new forms in terms of space and surface. More than anything they seek to create the kind of architecture that can lift the spirit.
