  • Descrição: Review of retrospective exhibition, "David Chipperfield: Form Matters", at the Design Museum, London. Taken together the projects displayed convincingly argue for a body of work rather than an idea or stylistic tic: 25 years of work is presented as a collage of artefacts, of design as an aspect of material culture rather than as art. Chipperfield's formative training and influences are explored in accompanying texts while the many models on display serve as documents of his office's imaginative investigation. A career of making humane habitats in the context of 20C amnesia is presented: there is a strange balance of confidence and vulnerability in Chipperfield's work and its range is overwhelming. Unlike the narcissism of "star architects", the work is embedded in place and manifests figuration, time, memory, nature and even decay, reminding us that architecture is mortal. Every tutor and student of architecture should see this show because Chipperfield offers the profession a way out of its denial about pomo on the one hand and its adolescent fixation with being original and new on the other.
