Few architects hace had a change to make an impact on London as rapidly and dramatically as Terry Farrell. He has had the remarkable opportunity to build three large, highly prominent and complex urban projects at the same time. Begun in the mid 1980's and completed in the early 1990s, they are an important reflection of their time, and form the foreground to some of the most characteristic views of the capital. All three projects grow from Farrell's passionate belief in the critical importance of a fresh approach to urban design. They bring new life to London's centre by working with, and not against, the grain of the city. But they also have a spectacular architectural presence of their own, offering a dramatic new element in the city that is operatic in its power and range.
