Space, Time and Architecture

The Growth of a New Tradition, Fifth Revised and Enlarged Edition (The Charles Eliot Norton Lectures)

Sigfried Giedion

This classic work is a milestone in modern architectural thought, exploring the relationship between space, time, and architecture. The revised edition includes new sections and 81 illustrations, with expanded chapters on leading contemporary architects and their works. The book also assesses the influence of architects such as Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright, and includes an entirely new chapter on Danish architect Jorn Utzon. A new essay on Changing Notions of the City examines urban growth and attempts to deal with it in modern architecture. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of architecture and urban design.
