}}{{Use dmy dates|date=October 2016}}{{Use British English|date=October 2016}} Sir Jeremy Dixon (born 31 May 1939) is a British architect and Principal of the London practice Dixon Jones.[1] CareerFollowing school days at Merchant Taylors, Dixon was trained at the Architectural Association. There he met, in the same year group, his future wife and working partner Fenella Dixon née Clemens. In 1973 they won together the competition for the Northamptonshire County Offices (assisted by Edward Jones) and were responsible for a number of London projects, mostly housing, including the terrace of dwellings at 105–123 St Mark’s Road. In partnership with Bill Jack of BDP, they won the Royal Opera House competition in 1984. The Jeremy/Fenella working association lasted until 1989 when Dixon was joined by Edward Jones, initially to complete the Royal Opera House. The new practice went on to complete a series of cultural and university projects including the National Portrait Gallery, The National Gallery, Said Business School and Exhibition Road together with projects that combine commercial and cultural functions such as Kings Place and Quadrant 3. More recently the practice has been involved with residential developments including the masterplan for Chelsea Barracks. Most of the work is located in London and both Dixon and Jones have a particular interest in the history and evolution of cities and in particular London. The work generally speaking takes account of the historical context as an approach to creating buildings on sensitive urban sites. He was knighted in the 2000 New Year Honours.[2] National Life Stories conducted an oral history interview (C467/91) with Jeremy Dixon in 2009 for its Architects Lives' collection held by the British Library.[3]Projects
