Grimshaw was founded by Sir Nicholas Grimshaw in 1980, became a partnership in 2007 and now operates worldwide. This volume covers the growth of the Grimshaw practice into a global network, with the opening of studios in Sydney, Doha and Kuala Lumpur.
It covers Grimshaw's focus on the restoration of cultural institutions including Queens Museum in New York and The Cutty Sark in London, its leadership in the field of transport design with the multi-award winning Fulton Center Transit Interchange in New York and the Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg, and the firm's first foray into public housing with the Via Verde project, reviewed by the New York Times as 'breaking the mould of subsidised housing'.
