HOK is an international architectural practice that has established itself through its principles of good design in the context of sustainability. HOK London exemplifies this approach towards building in the city, where its work falls into three categories: renovations, interiors and architecture. The book looks at 30 key works by the practice over the past 10 years, each presented through informative text, colour photographs and key drawings. An introduction with a site map explores its work from the perspective of the city, and a short final chapter looks forward to future projects. HOK London will be a key book for architects, and anyone interested in building design, environmental principles, or the city of London itself.
