Clive is the Publisher of Triglyph Books, which he founded with the photographer Dylan Thomas in 2019. Triglyph specialises in architectural books, often on living practitioners such as Hugh Petter, Michael Imber, Oliver Cope, Andrew Skurman and Tom Kligerman. In May 2025, Triglyph published his own latest work, King Charles III: 40 Years of Architecture.

In 1977, Clive joined Country Life magazine to write about architecture. In 1993 he became Editor, a position he held for 13 years, before becoming Editor at Large.

He opened the worlds eyes to the beauties of the Gilded Age in Britain and the US through pioneering books, beginning with The Last Country Houses (Yale University Press) in 1982.

Clive has written over 30 books and hundreds of newspaper and magazine articles, many of them in support of Classicism. These have included major works on Quinlan Terry, John Simpson and others of the Classical tribe.

Since 2021, Clive has been a Visiting Professor of Architecture at the University of Cambridge, where he helped to establish the Centre for the Study of Classical Architecture at Downing College.

In 2025 he launched a podcast Your Place or Mine? with Dr John Goodall, exploring and celebrating places and architecture.

He served as a trustee for organisations such as the Lutyens Trust, INTBAU and Plantlife International, and was a founder of the Twentieth Century Society in 1979.

In 2025 Clive was awarded the ICAA Arthur Ross Board of Directors Honor

Over Clive’s extraordinary career he has championed the cause of Classicism and the architects who continue its legacy to this day.

Andrew Skurman

Andrew Skurman began his career in Architecture as an apprentice at the firm of I.M. Pei & Partners. Finding early and growing success with large international firms, Skurman also developed a private passion for classical architecture. In 1992 he made that passion his life’s work when he founded his firm, Skurman Architects.

Skurman brings new projects to life all at once, by hand, at his drafting desk. He is in constant touch with clients during this initial design phase, realizing their dreams in the classical traditions of France, England and the Mediterranean. Perhaps Skurman’s most powerful design tool is his extensive library of classical buildings and details. Carefully mined to inspire each project, the library provides precedent for the new houses he creates. This ensures that while it has been newly imagined to suit the needs of the client, Skurman’s work stands seamlessly beside buildings from a century ago.

Skurman has received the honor of being named a Chevalier of Arts & Letters by the Minister of Culture of France. He also served as creative director of the landmark San Francisco Fall Show from 2008-2013. His firm has won seven coveted Julia Morgan awards from the Institute of Classical Architecture and Art for outstanding individual projects. In 2020, the ICAA recognized Skurman Architects with the Arthur Ross Award for lifetime achievement.

Skurman Architects published a monograph of their work, Contemporary Classical in 2012 with Princeton University Press. The firm released a second book, The Watercolors of Skurman Architects by Clive Aslet, published by Triglyph Books in May of 2025.
