Reviews

'Excellent... Franklin is a perceptive author'. Hugh Pearman, RIBA Journal 'This new publication from the Twentieth Century Society by historian Geraint Franklin is especially welcome. [...] John Outram is that rare thing, a British architect who has developed a coherent theoretical position alongside a compelling formal language. Geraint Franklin's book is an excellent dissection of both. The author is clearly enthused by the work but he is never hagiographic. He describes the buildings in ways that are enjoyable and accessible without ever being simplistic. The richness of the architecture and the idiosyncratic nature of Outram's oeuvre is challenging but Franklin does the work full justice. It is an excellent addition to the Twentieth Century Society series, expanding its remit to include the work of a brilliant, impossible to categorise, architect.' Charles Holland, Architecture Today 'Excellent and overdue' Anthony Paletta, The Architects' Newspaper
