Book Description
Robert McCarter provides a comprehensive study of Aldo van Eyck's 50-year career, guiding readers through the architect's buildings and unrealised projects, with a focus on the interior spatial experience as well as the design and construction processes. He investigates how van Eyck's writings and lectures convey the importance of architecture in the everyday lives of people around the world and throughout history, and by presenting the architect's design work together with the principles on which it was founded, illuminates van Eyck's ethical interpretation of architecture's place in the world.
