Praise Architecture discussion

As ‘Towards a New Architecture’ is conveniently made up of seven essays, I thought I would post a new discussion on each essay every day next week. If you’ve read the book I would love to hear your opinions, or if you want to read just one or two of the essays then join in!

Monday - The Engineer’s Aesthetic and Architecture

Tuesday - Three Reminders to Architects: i. Mass, ii. Surface, iii. Plan

Wednesday - Regulating Lines

Thursday - Eyes Which Do Not See: i. Liners, ii. Airplanes, iii. Automobiles

Friday - Architecture: i. The lesson of Rome, ii. The illusion of plan, iii. Pure creation of the mind

Saturday - Mass-Production Houses

Sunday - Architecture or Revolution


For those that don’t own the book, you can find it on the online book source I posted in a previous discussion or download the pdf using this link https://b-ok.cc/book/756592/d14f39
