AR Reads is a podcast series by the AR in which pieces from the archive are lovingly selected and read out loud for you to enjoy
This episode features a piece on Cedric Price by Douglas Murphy, published in AR December 2017/January 2018. The piece is part of our Reputations series, and was published as part of an issue on the theme of adaptive reuse, picking up on the ideas of adaptability, indeterminacy, and progress that underlie Price’s work.
As the need for sustainable alternatives to building anew becomes increasingly urgent, the New into Old awards celebrate the creative ways buildings are adapted and remodelled to welcome new contemporary uses. This year, we will be hosting the winner of the 2021 awards, ZAV Architects, in an online event celebrating their project Farsh Film Studio, and discussing adaptive reuse as a type of architectural intervention. The event will be held on 19 July and is free to attend – click here to find out more and register
