Architect Peter Barber is one of the UK’s leading contemporary urbanists with an award-winning practice based in King’s Cross, central London. Established in 1989 Peter Barber Architects is renowned for high-quality, high-density housing with numerous ground-breaking mixed-use and residential schemes, planning studies and individual buildings across the UK. The practice’s varied portfolio of work is underpinned by a consistent commitment to radical solutions and excellence in design. Peter’s central approach to work is that architecture can create the potential for social action and activity; that we are shaped by the space that surrounds us and in turn that space is conditioned by society and wider culture.
