This new NeoArchitecture monograph presents the work of Studio Downie, a young practice whose work to date has mostly appeared in the UK, but is poised to make its mark on the world scene. Craig Downie studied architecture within the layered environment of fine art, sculpture, graphics and textiles at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee. He formed Studio Downie in 1993 and its first building, a widely published gallery for the Cass Sculpture Foundation, West Sussex, was completed in 1994. The intervening years have involved many projects, including interiors for the Ondaatje Theatre, the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA), KPMG Microsoft, government-funded outreach centres for the West London Training & Enterprise Council and offices for the French Treasury. Recent commissions include the Library for the Royal College of Surgeons of England and a new mixed-use gateway building as part of the King's Cross Development.
