Gavin Macrae-Gibson has written extensively on architectural matters, most significantly in the 1985 book from MIT Press entitled The Secret Life of Buildings: An American Mythology for Modern Architecture. This book takes the form of an analysis of seven American buildings built or conceived during the critical period 1978-1983. However, its' underlying message concerns the importance of an architecture of ideas, a message which the work of Macrae-Gibson Architects has sought to make tangible.
