Looks at the development of urban design, focusing on four elements: the physical dimension of monuments and spaces, and the humanist dimension of patterns and narrative in cities.

Design in the Contemporary City

Urban Ethic

Peter Blundell Jones

Once again, new interpretations are presented of some of the most famous architecture of the period. Work by lesser-known architects, whose influence and role have been overlooked by conventional histories of the subject, is discussed. The case study structure allows each example to be discussed and used as a springboard to explore different theoretical approaches. Filled with beautiful photographs, plans and architect's drawings, this is a clear and accessible discussion on a period of architecture that engages many questions still under debate in architecture today.
