By Deyan Sudjic Writer, architecture critic and Director of the Design Museum, London Richard Rogers collected the Pritzker Prize in 2007 in London in the magnificent setting of the banqueting hall designed by Indigo Jones, for the royal palace that he was never to finish for Charles I. The 17th century monarch’s reign came to an abrupt end when Oliver Cromwell had the New Model Army march him under the great ceiling painted by Rubens, through one of the hall’s windows, and onto a scaffold outside to be beheaded in the climactic episode to the English Civil War. Given that the king’s 20th century descendant, the Prince of Wales, the future Charles III, has been the most highly visible critic of contemporary architecture in Britain, it was perhaps a somewhat unlikely setting for a ceremony honoring one of Britain’s most prominent architects.Download

ISBN: 3642245439 | 2012 | PDF | 447 pages | 11 MB Today, our cities are an embodiment of the complex, historical evolution of knowledge, desires and technology. Our planned and designed activities co-evolve with our aspirations, mediated by the existing technologies and social structures. The city represents the accretion and accumulation of successive layers of collective activity, structuring and being structured by other, increasingly distant cities, reaching now right around the globe. This historical and structural development cannot therefore be understood or captured by any set of fixed quantitative relations.Download
