Edited by Rachel Moss (TCD)and Heather Pulliam (Univ. Edinburgh). As evidenced by the famed Book of Kells and monumental high crosses, Scotland and Ireland have long shared a distinctive artistic tradition. The story of how this tradition developed and flourished for another millennium through survival, adaptation and revival is less well known. Click for more information.

Edited by Andrew Tierney and Melanie Hayes, foreword by Christine Casey, UCL Press, 2024. The seventeenth and eighteenth centuries represent a high point in the collaborative engagement between design and workmanship. Building on the shift towards a collaborative and qualitative analysis of architectural production, Between Design and Making re-evaluates the social and professional fabric that binds design to making, and the asymmetry that has emerged between architecture and craft. Combining analysis of buildings, archival material and eighteenth-century writings, the authors draw out the professional, pedagogical and social links between architectural practice and workmanship, to argue for a process-oriented understanding of architectural production.
