A powerful new monograph showcasing the defining elements and architectural anatomy at the very heart of Pawson´s work

This monograph, the latest volume in Phaidon´s

documentation of John Pawson´s stellar career,

hones in on the essential details that mark his

distinctive architectural and aesthetic style.

It groups a selection of his recent works into

domestic projects, including his own house in

rural England; extended sacred spaces; and

repurposed structures, such as London´s Design

Museum. Throughout its pages, this book

explores Pawson´s unique approach to

proportion and light and his precise language

of windows, doors, and walls.
