The second walk is looking at the recent work of stephenson hamilton risley STUDIO, who can trace their history back to 1979. We will be led by Keith Hamilton, a director of the firm.
We will looking at Halle St Peters, One Express, Leonardo Hotel, AVRO Works and Chetham's School of Music. We hope to gain access (performances permitting) to both Halle and Chetham's.
This is a unique opportunity to not only see some good contemporary architecture but hear about the background and rationale for the projects.
