An art historian by training, his research and publications focus on the themes of comparative aesthetics, architectural tradition and heritage, as well as environmental psychology and philosophy. His previous books include Le Corbusier and the Concept of Self (Yale 2003) and Architect Knows Best: Environmental Determinism in Architecture Culture from 1956 to the Present (Ashgate 2016), and he is currently collaborating on a major project on Constantinos Doxiadis and the Delos Symposia.

His practice experience includes an extended period in New York with the prestigious and award-winning firm, Herb Beckhard and Frank Richlan (HB+FR), and he has received numerous plaudits for his design work including the Jeffrey J. Pilling Scholarship for Excellence in Design and the Pella Architectural Scholarship. Robert's research focuses on the themes of adaptability and re-use, on which he has published several papers and books. Cagri Sanliturk is a Lecturer in Architecture and Politics at Loughborough University. His research and publications focus on the relation between theory and practice, seeking to understand architecture through the lenses of politics, performance art, visual art and narrative. He is particularly interested in exploring everyday life and spatial practices, often in situ with real communities, and in tracing how these relate to the controlling power within conflicted and divided societies.
