Concerning architecture and the city, built, imagined and narrated,
this book focuses on Manhattan and Venice, but considers
architecture as an intellectual and spatial process rather than a
product. A critical look at the making of Manhattan and Venice
provides a background to addressing the dynamic redefinition and
making of space today. The gradual processes of adjustment, the
making of a constantly changing dense space, the emphasis on
forming rather than on figure, the incorporation of new forms and
languages through their adaptation and transformation, make both
Manhattan and Venice, in different ways, the ideal places to
contextualize and address the issue of an architecture of the
dynamic.
