Dr David Littlefield


I joined the University of Westminster in 2021 as a Senior Lecturer. I lead the course MA Interior Architecture; I also run a core module within MA Architecture & Sustainable Heritage. I co-convene the Heritage & Place Research Group; and am the lead for the teaching of humanities, ecologies and culture across the School of Architecture + Cities. I have written widely on architecture, interiors, heritage and place - including a special focus on the cities of London, Liverpool and Bath. I was awarded my PhD in 2024, for the thesis "The real thing: an investigation into authenticity and the substance of place".
