The amazing success last year
of Feilden Clegg Bradley was tempered by the death of Richard
Feilden in a freak accident at his home in late January. Feilden
was making a glade in memory of his father who had died only
three months previous, at which time a tree he was cutting
struck him in the chest and crushed him. RIBA president George
Ferguson described him as "a great force for good in
British architecture," his illustrious career marked
by a drive to improve public architecture, particularly educational
and housing. Westfield Student Village will be an appropriate
legacy for an architect who, "bubbled
with energy and commitment." |
