Sir James Frazer Stirling (22 April 1926 – 25 June 1992) was a British architect. Among critics and architects alike he is generally acknowledged to be one of the most important and influential architects of the second half of the 20th century. His career began as one of a number of young architects who from the 1950s onwards questioned and subverted the compositional and theoretical precepts of the first Modern Movement.
