Description

John Madin was a master of post-war architecture in Birmingham, leaving an indelible mark on the city's landscape. His work, characterized by attention to detail and a preference for natural materials, produced some of the most iconic buildings of that period.

Madin's approach to architecture was multifaceted, encompassing both commercial and conservationist elements. This book explores his lesser-known public service commissions, master-planning of new towns, and design of housing schemes, which continue to be lived-in and popular today.

Lavishly illustrated with images from Madin's personal archive and stunning new photography, this book is a valuable resource for architects, students, and enthusiasts interested in learning more about a key figure in British post-war architecture.
