Big House Little City

Architectural Design Through an Urban Lens

Beschreibung

Combining architectural and urban thinking in an unusual and engaging way this book presents an integrated approach to architectural theory and design, using as a springboard Leon Battista Albertiâ s assertion in his famous Renaissance treatise that "the city is like a big house, and the house is in turn like a little city".

Autor

Benedict Zucchi, Principal and Head of Architecture at Building Design Partnership, studied architecture at the Universities of Cambridge and Harvard. His previous publications include the first English language monograph on Italian architect Giancarlo De Carlo. A close reading of place and use and an abiding interest in user participation have been common threads in Benedict's projects, which range from mixed-use masterplans, schools and universities to designs for major hospitals.
