Asking, Looking, Playing, Making, Tonkin

"This little book betrays its size by explaining a big concept... of designing in a different way... of approaching the client's brief uniquely... of discovering the creative spark - that essentially differentiates architecture from mere building - by coming from a new direction." David Rock This, the first book to be published on Tonkin Architects, covers the group's work to date and underlines their original approach - "a combination of poetry and practicality" - to the fields of architecture and interior design. Combining creativity with functionalism. Tonkin's design solutions, to projects as diverse as the Flex Gray Bar, Fontworks Offices, the Hugo and Peak Houses in Hong Kong, and the Ubud Hotel Complex, emphasise a unique practice.Mike Tonkin is the author of 'Asking, Looking, Playing, Making, Tonkin' with ISBN 9781901033519 and ISBN 1901033511.
