"Timothy Soar has an unerring eye. His photographs speak with more eloquence than any words can summon."

Lord Foster



"Timothy Soar's images discover and emphasise new and unexpected possibilities in our buildings."

Sir Michael Hopkins



"Solid form coexisting with total transparency has been brilliantly captured by Timothy Soar's photographs"

Sir Denys Lasdun



"Timothy Soar's photographs really 'see' the building. Architecture needs this kind of interpretive photography which searches out special qualities."

Sir Richard MacCormac



"An extraordinary British architectural photographer, a superior artist, his work involves skill and understanding and care, I adore its sensibility."

Robert Venturi.



"Tim Soar is a master of transparency. No photographer better captures the solid water of glass architecture."

Martin Pawley Editor, World Architecture Magazine



"Timothy Soar is able to identify the character, as much as the appearance, of a building and its setting. In particular he captures those qualities of space and light that are integral to the art."

Hugh Pearman Architecture Correspondent, The Sunday Times
