(About the author) 'Nigel Peake achieved a RIBA silver award commendation while an architecture student at the University of Edinburgh. In the past few years collections of his work have been published in 'Sheds' and "Maps' by Analogue Books. From his attic studio on a quiet road a few miles from the coast line he continues to enjoy making and drawing things. His art recently has been exhibited in Antwerp, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia and Shanghai and his drawings used in a variety of commercial projects.'
(The Drawings) 'The drawings included in this book were drawn in June and July and collated in December. They are intended as records of lost buildings and constructions - inspired by a collection of photographs (some of which appear in this book) found in a second hand store in Philadelphia. The lady who sold them to me said they were 'instant relatives? It has been a joy to draw and dwell on these structures and to remember the empty houses that line the country roads and the edges of prospering towns.'
