James Stirling (April 19, 1976) Part 1 of 2
Shelly Kappe welcomes James Stirling.
Stirling proposes to discuss his work with James Gowan as "a collection of archaeological pieces, or, a series of characteristics, hence a collage of preferred items." Which he specifies as five categories of building designs:
--Vertically stacked aggregation of accommodations,
--Linear addition of similar accommodations
--L-shape, with linear extensions enclosing volumes
--Wrap-around courtyard spaces
--Building that turns in on itself
He discusses competitions for a museum of modern art in Düsseldorf and the Wallraf-Richartz-Museum in Cologne.

Hello Friends and Welcome to the Architecture Enthusiust.
The architectural journey of James Stirling is a tale of two significant partnerships, each distinct in its contribution to the fabric of twentieth-century architecture. The first, with James Gowan, was marked by a groundbreaking exploration into new forms and ideologies. The second, with Michael Wilford, ventured further into the realms of Postmodernism, pushing the boundaries of architectural expression.
The architectural narrative of James Stirling and James Gowan’s partnership is a striking chapter in the history of modern architecture, marked by a brief but intensely creative period that yielded some of the most provocative and innovative buildings of the mid-twentieth century. Their collaborative efforts, though lasting less than a decade, produced work that remains influential for its bold experimentation with form, materiality, and spatial organization, contributing significantly to the Brutalist movement and beyond.
Leicester University Engineering Building (1959-1963)
The partnership’s magnum opus, the Engineering Building at the University of Leicester, stands as a landmark of post-war British architecture. This building is a composition of contrasting volumes: the heavy, cantilevered lecture theatres juxtaposed against the vertically soaring water tower. The workshops, with their distinctive diamond-shaped glass and concrete façade, are a testament to Stirling and Gowan’s innovative approach to architectural skin and technology. Functionality is worn as a badge of honor, with services, structure, and circulation all expressed explicitly, challenging the Miesian glass box that dominated the era's architectural landscape.
Cambridge University History Faculty Building (1964-1967)
While the History Faculty Building at Cambridge University was completed after Gowan's departure, it was conceived during their partnership and exhibits many of their shared architectural ideologies. The building is characterized by its unique roof and service tower, which houses an intricate system of mechanical services. It is a building that prioritizes the library as the heart of the academic environment, with reading rooms elevated on a podium and encased in a glass shell, symbolizing the transparency and flow of knowledge.
Ham Common Flats (1955-1958)
Prior to their iconic work in Leicester, Stirling and Gowan’s Ham Common Flats in London showcased their early interest in residential design and modern living. The flats are an exercise in blending modern materials and construction techniques with human scale and comfort, displaying a mastery over domestic space that would inform their larger institutional projects.[endSpeech] [startSpeech v=Loud r=Slow startSpeech]
Andrew Melville Hall, University of Saint Andrews (1964)
Although the building was completed after the dissolution of their partnership, Andrew Melville Hall was designed during their collaboration. This student residence hall is another example of their Brutalist approach to university buildings. Its striking façade is composed of pre-cast concrete fins that provide privacy while allowing light into the student rooms. The building is arranged as two linear blocks, linked by a central dining hall, creating a strong internal community while also engaging with the wider university environment.
The Legacy of Stirling and Gowan
Together, Stirling and Gowan crafted buildings that were both of their time and ahead of it. Their work was marked by a fearless approach to scale and form, an insistence on expressing the inner workings of a building, and a responsiveness to the program that defied conventional norms. They questioned the prevailing orthodoxy of modernism, not to discard it but to extend its possibilities.
Their buildings stand as physical manifestos of their architectural belief system. A belief in the expressive power of architecture, in the importance of context and history, and in the role of innovation as a driving force for design. The partnership's end did not diminish the impact of their collaboration. Instead, it underscored the intensity of their short-lived alliance and the lasting mark it left on the trajectory of modern architecture.
