An illuminating look at a controversial architectural style--and
its finest examples. Postmodern architecture, which emerged in the
1980s, has been much maligned--but in this book historians Elain
Harwood and Geraint Franklin celebrate the genre with a fascinating
discussion of its background and key concepts. Each lavishly
illustrated entry focuses on what characteristics make the
structure unique and provides information on the architect who
created it. Eye-opening examples include No 1 Poultry, a London
office building by James Stirling; the Sainsbury Wing of the
National Gallery, designed by Robert Venturi; the striking TV-am
studios in Camden; and the iconic SIS Building in central London.
