Kevin McCloud
KEVIN McCLOUD is best known for Channel 4’s Grand Designs and for his annual coverage of the Stirling Prize (the highest award for contemporary British architecture) each October. Kevin's two ambitions are to entertain and to make the built environment better - and consequently ‘make people feel better’. Kevin is a fabulous keynote on sustainable architecture and the environment.
Kevin admits to an unhealthy obsession for buildings since childhood: he studied the history of them at Cambridge, has designed everything in and around them, has lit them and written about them. He now champions issues such as context, the historic environment and sustainable construction, often in his feisty column in the Sunday Times in which he takes on planners, architects and developers. He also writes for Grand Designs magazine.
Kevin’s other forays into television include Don’t Look Down for BBC2, in which he climbed six tall buildings and Demolition for Channel 4, in which he, George Ferguson and Janet Street-Porter started a campaign to improve public space in our towns and cities.
Kevin was awarded two honorary doctorates, from Plymouth and Oxford Brookes, primarily for getting rid of the capital 'A' from architecture. He is a recalcitrant patron of several architectural and sustainable charities, a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Foresters and a WWF Ambassador.
When not filming, Kevin runs a product design practice. He has designed lighting for some of the finest buildings in Europe and many great houses - Ely Cathedral, Edinburgh Castle, two European palaces, the Savoy and Dorchester hotels, to name a few.
Kevin is a much sought-after speaker and awards host in the corporate sector.
