Kevin Rhowbotham graduated from Cornell University with a Masters in Architecture followed by Doctoral studies at Cambridge University.  His teaching career began at the Bartlett School.  He has challenged and energised a generation of architecture students, many of whom work with him to this day.  With the publication of two ground-breaking books Field Event, Field Space and the influential Form to Programme he achieved an international reputation as a theorist lecturing internationally on architecture and urban issues.

Currently his work celebrates his commitment to user demographics and brand marketing, sustainable design and the shifting ecomonic structures that question what has gone before in Western economies and consequent design for life in today’s cities.  As both educator and architect he looks to connect within challenging alliances with like-minded architects and designers, educators, students, developers, urban commercial consultants and academics.
