Description
The late Robin Evans (1944-1993) was a highly original historian of architecture whose writings covered a wide range of concerns: societys role in the evolution and development of building types, aspects of geometry, modes of projection, military architecture, representation of all kinds.
No matter what the topic, however, he always drew on first-hand experience, arriving at his insights from direct observation.
This book brings together eight of Evans most significant essays. Written over a period of twenty years, from 1970, when he graduated from the Architectural Association, to 1990, they represent the diverse interests of an agile and sceptical mind.
The book also includes an introduction by Mohesen Mostafavi, an account of the development of Evans writing by Robin Middleton, and a biography by Richard Difford.
