The first book to look architectural narrative in the eye
Since the early eighties, many architects have used the term
"narrative" to describe their work. To architects the enduring
attraction of narrative is that it offers a way of engaging with
the way a city feels and works. Rather than reducing architecture
to mere style or an overt emphasis on technology, it foregrounds
the experiential dimension of architecture. Narrative
Architecture explores the potential for narrative as a way of
interpreting buildings from ancient history through to the present,
deals with architectural background, analysis and practice as well
as its future development.
* Authored by Nigel Coates, a foremost figure in the field of
narrative architecture, the book is one of the first to address
this subject directly
* Features architects as diverse as William Kent, Antoni
Gaudí, Eero Saarinen, Ettore Sottsass, Superstudio, Rem
Koolhaas, and FAT to provide an overview of the work of NATO and
Coates, as well as chapters on other contemporary designers
* Includes over 120 colour photographs
Signposting narrative's significance as a design approach that
can aid architecture to remain relevant in this complex,
multi-disciplinary and multi-everything age, Narrative
Architecture is a must-read for anyone with an interest in
architectural history and theory.
