Book Synopsis
Focuses on the role of the technical aspects of architectural design, as part of the process of innovation and in relation to the mythic opposition between vision and construction. This title argues that by making symbolic expression a primary objective in the design of a project, designers produce a practical aesthetic and an ethical solution.
