DIALOGUES ON ARCHITECTURE

Price: 40

In this book, a number of protagonists of Italian modern architecture provide vivid dialogues - here taken to mean 'the talking of the soul with itself' - on how they perceive the interaction between idea, design and construction. Drawing on these personal views, Dialogues on Architecture explores the relationship that exists between the poetic and the technical-scientific spheres in architecture, underlining their complementary and conflictual natures. Dialogues on Architecture rejects the interpretation of architecture as orientated exclusively towards the end result and reconnects the previously interrupted narratives that follow a design from its conception to its completion.
