Meeting Ian Ritchie in person is definitely an experience to remember and chatting with him helps to get a better understanding of the work of one of the most influential characters of the High-Tech epoch and of the debate on contemporary architecture.
Indeed, Ian is one of those rare people whose tranquility and smiling eyes transmit the enthusiasm and care for architecture and the pursuit of a poetic and formal image that is never repulsed by its technological and constructive connotation, by its material essence, by the scientific approach to materials.
