Ryder and Yates: Twentieth Century Architects
For the first time a comprehensive account of the outstanding work of Ryder & Yates has been chronicled in this book by Tyneside architect Rutter Carroll.
Illustrated by images from the Ryder & Yates private archive, this book is an essential read for architects, students, architectural historians and modernist enthusiasts interested in learning more about one of the 20th century’s most intriguing British practices.
This book has been commissioned as part of a series of books on 20th Century Architects by RIBA Publishing, English Heritage and The Twentieth Century Society.
It is a privilege and a delight to be writing this foreword for the first book to recognise and chronicle what is, I believe, a highly significant body of work, a fitting testament to the value of Ryder and Yates. I like to think that their spirit lives on in Ryder today.
