Price, Cedric (John)

(b Stone, Staffs, 11 Sept 1934). English architect. The eldest son of the architect A. G. Price (1901–53), he was educated at Cambridge University (1952–5), where he studied under John Penn, and then at the Architectural Association School, London (1955–7), where he studied under Arthur Korn. Price worked in the offices of Erno Goldfinger and Fry, Drew & Partners, before establishing his own practice in 1960. His first two major projects were the aviary (1960) at London Zoo and the Fun Palace (1960–61; unbuilt), both of which were to help set an agenda for his subsequent research.
