It would be difficult to draw all the leaves that fall from a tree.
But it is something I like to think about every autumn.

Depending on the tree they fall differently in the air.

Some dive.
Some swim.
Some propel.

Nigel Peake


It’s hard to summarise the work of artist – or as he has suggested it ‘drawer’ – Nigel Peake because there is so much of it and it’s varied. Nigel, who grew up in Ballytrustan (County Down) and currently lives between there and Paris, originally studied architecture in Edinburgh for six years and in 2013 lived in Switzerland for a period to teach an architectural studio. In the past 10 years he’s written and drawn 50 books, published by Princeton Architectural Press, Yvon Lambert or by himself. His work is based on places he has visited. His clients include Hermès, Flos, Rapha, and Luca Guadagnino. His work has been exhibited in Tokyo, New York and Paris.
