Paolo Rosselli
Graduating with a degree in architecture from Milan Polytechnic in 1977, Paolo Rosselli began his career in architectural photography under the guidance of art historian Arturo Schwarz, documenting temples throughout India. Since then his approach to architecture through photography has seen him focus on contemporary architecture, such as his work with quarterly magazine Lotus, and on modern architects such as Giuseppe Terragni. Rosselli has exhibited works at the XLV Venice Biennial (1993, 2004 and 2006 respectively) and has lectured in photography at both Milan Polytechnic and Goldsmiths, University of London. With a back catalogue of more than 20 books published Rosselli’s most recent work is Sandwich Digitale (Quodlibet, 2009). He is currently working on a photography and text project documenting the changing world of India. Rosselli lives and works in Milan.

Ahrends, Burton and Koralek (ABK) was established in London in 1961 by three AA graduates, Peter Ahrends, Richard Burton and Paul Koralek. By the 1970s, ABK had become known as one of the most creative and versatile of Britain’s younger practices, its workload ranging from college buildings in Dublin, Oxford and Chichester to housing, public libraries, retail and industrial buildings. The book covers 50 years of practice.
Written by architectural author, critic and current AA councillor, Kenneth Powell, and with an introduction by Richard Rogers,
this book was commissioned as part of the Twentieth Century Architects series by RIBA Publishing, English Heritage and The Twentieth Century Society.
To book a place, please contact Joanne McCluskey at events@aaschool.ac.uk or call 020 7887 4034.
The Prototype House featured in the image was designed by ABK and Frei Otto with Buro Happold. Built in 1985, it uses an experimental structure that consists of roundwood A-frames from which a tent-like tensile timber roof is suspended. Today, the building contains the kitchen and dining space for staff and students at Hooke Park.

The AA’s Hooke Park is a 350-acre working forest in Dorset, southwest England. It is a unique site for experimentation and fabrication for visiting groups of AA tutors and students, to run activities in the workshop or within the forest itself as an alternative to the central London environment of Bedford Square.
An exciting new phase of development is underway at Hooke Park – the AA aims to develop the campus as a site for exploring rural architectures, crafts of construction, and sustainable timber technologies. A new graduate design course, Design & Make, based at Hooke Park is now in its second year. Together with students in Diploma 19, this year they have designed and built the first of a series of planned new structures. This is part of a strategic plan for Hooke Park, which has been developed by the AA in consultation with West Dorset Council, the local community and professional advisors and consultants.

Cooking and eating will take place in the famed ABK Prototype House (above), now used as the Hooke Park kitchen and dining space. Georgie’s knowledge of the medicinal and herbal plants of the UK is unsurpassed and her passion for the subject, natural teaching style, and keen sense of humour make her a joy to learn from.

The visionary architect Cedric Price once imagined a ‘Fun Palace’ occupying the site now taken over by the 2012 Olympic park. The empty industrial landscapes of Hackney have been host to hundreds of projects over several decades, dreams of possible futures by residents, architects, writers, artists and politicians. A panel of speakers – Saskia Sassen, Will Self, Anna Minton and Stephen Gill – will explore how the Olympic regeneration has frozen these dreams in time, while opening the doors to a new set of plans and hopes for East London. The talk will be chaired by Sam Jacob, AA tutor and director of FAT.
This event has been organised by the AA Membership Office and is part of both the London Festival of Architecture and the London Literature Festival.
