The Emerald City: And Other Essays on the Architectural Imagination


Add your own review!

Overview

In this book, the author takes us on a flight of imagination that never strays far from the most tangible, even intimate subjects. It suggests that architecture is as vital as ever, and draws on a number of literary texts including the ""Wizard Of Oz"" and the ""Tower of Babel."" It also challenges readers to rethink their participation in the built environment, and the text is accompanied by the author's original illustrations which link the forms and forces surrounding architecture at the end of the 20th-century in thought-provoking ways.
