Hugh Martin: It was the later work by the Smithsons at Ansty Plum that I was interested in. The garage/studio is 1971 but they also did the garden ramps in 1986 and a porch in 1993. Roger Rigby of Arup, the owner of Ansty Plum, was presumably a friend so they were prepared to do these trivial jobs for him. But throughout their careers they seem to have had a shortage of work. Derek Sugden apparently asked Peter Smithson to recommend an architect for his house, assuming Smithson would have been too busy, and was quite surprised to find that he wanted the job for himself.
