Peter Salter: Drawings – Pre-order

This book presents drawings produced between 1985 and 2020 by architectural designer and educator Peter Salter. Working back and forth between architectural details, atmospheric perspectives and large-scale plans and sections of entire schemes, the drawings reveal Salter’s characteristic balance of architectural poetics and technical expertise.

Full-scale drawings of construction details and pieces of furniture reveal a deep knowledge of materials and the way they behave, as well as a care and consideration for how buildings come together. Composed alongside plans and sections at 1:100 – often on the same sheet of paper – these demonstrate a keen attention to scale and a complete approach to architecture, tracing the lineage of the family of idiosyncratic forms that has become emblematic of Salter’s celebrated practice.

Peter Salter: Drawings is available for pre-order, with copies shipping in December 2026.
