Robert Maxwell has had a long and distinguished career as an architect and architectural historian and teacher. For many years, he was the Dean at Princeton School of Architecture; prior to this, he was a practicing architect in the UK. Maxwell is currently teaching the history and theory of architecture at the Architectural Association in London. Although a champion of Modernism, this interest is informed by an acute appreciation of Postmodern developments in the late twentieth century. Tim Macfarlane was a founding partner of Macfarlane Dewhurst, one of the most prominent structural engineering practices working in the UK today, with offices in New York and London; they are particularly known for their use of glass as a structural material. Tim Macfarlane is highly regarded both for his work as a practising architect, and for his teaching roles in UK and American Universities. Patrick Bellew was one of the founding partners of Atelier 10, a cutting edge design engineering practice particularly known for their work on environmental sustainability. Aside from their extensive work for Rick Mather Architects, Atelier 10 are known for their economically and environmentally accountable design engineering work for Zaha Hadid, Richard Rogers Partnership, and Future Systems, among others. Bellew is also a respected teacher at Yale, Harvard, and Columbia Universities.
