The 2019 Wren Talk

‘From spires to towers – the politics of the skyline’

Wednesday 30th October - St Bride's, Fleet Street,
London EC4Y 8AU at 7pm

Eric Perry Architects’ 73-storey tower development at 1 Undershaft (‘The Trellis’), will be the tallest building in the City of London, when completed. However, Eric Parry RA (above) is also renowned for cultural projects, including restoration and reworking of St Martin-in-the-Fields in Trafalgar Square, and the highly acclaimed Holburne Museum extension in Bath. He serves on the Council of the Royal Academy and the Fabric Advisory Committee of Canterbury Cathedral.

His reputation for delivering beautifully crafted and high-quality contemporary buildings that respond to their context has resulted in a series of commissions in Westminster as well as the City in recent years.

Eric will be talking about the dilemmas and challenges involved in creating skyline architecture. The event will be chaired by Paul Finch, Programme Director of the World Architecture Festival.
