Alison and Peter Smithson

Alison and Peter Smithson were a British architect couple who gained prominence in the mid-20^th century for their work in the New Brutalism movement. Members of the influential Team 10 group, they challenged prevailing modernist principles with a more human-centered approach to design, emphasizing texture, materials, and the social aspects of architecture. Their notable projects, such as the Hunstanton School and Robin Hood Gardens, have become iconic for their innovative use of form and material, and their ideas have had a lasting impact on architectural theory and practice.
