  • Rutter Carroll RYDER to Maintain Consistency of Output Over 60 Years of Practice Is a Tough Call
    RYDER Rutter Carroll RYDER_ To maintain consistency of output over 60 years of practice is a tough call. We have PREFACE never tried to change; we have simply tried to improve the quality of our surroundings, and in doing so, the quality of people’s lives. PETER Looking back there is a remarkable consistency of approach, and in many ways this interests us more than the product. After all, the product is a product of the approach, BUCHAN it kind of looks after itself. The ‘what’ of ‘what we do’ is about simplicity, usefulness, elegance. To continue to improve this we have become increasingly obsessed with the ‘how’ of our architecture. The ‘how’ is about developing the best people and creating organisations that allow them to grow and contribute, to achieve what we collectively define as excellence. It has been quite a journey, and it is only in hindsight that one begins to read the patterns. Most of the time we are so committed to dealing with the present and considering the future that there is a little opportunity, or indeed desire, to reflect on the past. The connections to the two postwar pioneers, Gordon Ryder and Peter Yates, seem tenuous and potent in equal measure. In turn, their own connections to the legacy of Berthold Lubetkin and Le Corbusier seem now equally tenuous yet potent. There is something powerful in the collective memory and culture of an organisation; sometimes carried forward by individuals, often at times by a surge of a whole group. It shapes what we do. This is why we have been so taken up with the ‘how’, and we have striven to build a collective, a shared culture and vision that runs through the whole organisation, wherever its people are located.
