Clive Aslet is the Publisher of Triglyph Books, which he founded with the photographer Dylan Thomas in 2019. Triglyph specializes in architectural books, often on living practitioners such as Hugh Petter, Michael Imber, Oliver Cope, Andrew Skurman and Larry Boerder. In May, Triglyph published his own latest work, King Charles III: 40 Years of Architecture.
In 1977, Clive joined Country Life magazine to write about architecture. In 1993 he became Editor, a position he held for 13 years, before becoming Editor at Large. He opened the world’s eyes to the beauties of the Gilded Age in Britain and the US through pioneering books, beginning with The Last Country Houses (Yale University Press) in 1982.
Clive has written over 30 books and hundreds of newspaper and magazine articles, many of them in support of Classicism. These have included major works on Quinlan Terry, John Simpson and others of the Classical tribe. Since 2021, Clive has been a Visiting Professor of Architecture at the University of Cambridge, where he helped to establish the Centre for the Study of Classical Architecture at Downing College.
He served as a trustee for organizations such as the Lutyens Trust, INTBAU and Plantlife International, and was a founder of the Twentieth Century Society in 1979. Earlier this year Clive was thrilled to receive the ICAA Arthur Ross Board of Directors Honor.
Dylan Thomas is an internationally renowned photographer of architecture and interiors. His images capture the complex interplay between light and shadow, communicating a sensitive interpretation of his environment and transforming spaces into compelling and emotive visual experiences. Dylan’s commissions span historic estates, contemporary residences and cultural institutions across the UK, Europe and the United States, with long-standing collaborations that reflect his careful, discreet approach.
His photographs and book projects have featured widely, including in The World of Interiors, Architectural Digest, The Wall Street Journal, British Vogue, Vanity Fair, Veranda, Galerie, House &Garden and Country Life.
Beyond photography, Dylan serves as CEO and Creative Director of Triglyph Books. He leads projects from editorial concept through design, picture direction and production, creating finely crafted volumes for clients and collaborators.
