Shortlist DAM Architectural Book Award 2021
"Architects, artists and university professors, Jamrozik and Kempster devised what they call a remarkable 'journey of creative documentation', now turned into a book entitled Growing up Modern. 'Hearing about the history of a place from someone who grew up there would help us understand the architecture better and would make us pay attention to it in a different way.' they concluded, 'an obvious but significant fact, but one that the discipline of architecture still needs to absorb and put into active practice.'" (Elena Sommariva in Domus, 04.2021)
"A highly commendable and readable work, Growing Up Modern will soon find its place in discussions of social sustainability, as we most certainly need to continue to nurture not just individuals but families with children, knowing that the first impressions of those toddlers towards our built environments will have a lasting impact. As such, this book can be enjoyed by architects and designers, child psychologists and sociologists, as well as educators and young parents." (Sean Ruthen in Spacing, 07.2021)
"It's a great idea that reveals personal insights into modernist masterpieces, such as Hans Scharoun's Schminke House, through both the conversations and new photography inside the buildings. Floor plans annotated with the childhood memories are a great addition to this beautiful book." (John Hill in world-architects.com, 07.2021)
"So, this publication [...] contributes to an expanded and evolving architectural, cultural, and social perception of these modernist houses." (decomomo, 08.2021)
