Dr Nick Beech an architectural historian with a particular interest in cultures of construction and building. Nick's doctoral thesis (Bartlett, UCL) argued that prosaic processes of demolition and building at the South Bank in the 1940s revealed wider social and political transformations.

Nick has taught the history, theory and cultural context of architecture at a number of architectural schools in London and Oxford. Nick's research contends with two broad, open questions of architectural and urban history--what industrial changes occurred in building and architectural practices in mid-twentieth century Britain? How might those specific processes of change illuminate transformations in wider cultural and political dimensions? He has considered these questions in relation to the building industry, architectural profession, and wider cultural and political institutions, of mid-twentieth century London in particular. Nick continues to collaborate with a diverse range and number of scholars, public intellectuals, artists and architects in pursuit of this research.
