Description

An Architecture of Parts offers a fresh look at the history of post war reconstruction in Britain. Rather than following traditional narratives, this book examines the changing relationship between architects and building workers between 1940 and 1970. It explores how technical changes impacted both individual and collective work during this transformative era. By bringing together technical archives, oral history, and visual material, the text provides a detailed account of the construction process during and after the war. It focuses on the social aspects of production and how working life changed for those involved in the building industry. This volume is a significant resource for understanding the human and industrial elements that shaped the British built environment during the mid-twentieth century.
