The Vision of a New Architecture, Second Edition
Paperback
Publication Date: 01/07/2003
Peter Collins provides a thorough history of the new 19th century-material and goes on to examine the theories on its architectural expression, focusing on the determining role of the reinforced concrete frame. He argues that the seminal French architect, Auguste Perret, provides the first rational and effective expression of classical principles in modern construction. First published in 1959 and out of print since 1975, this new edition includes several additional essays on Perret by Peter Collins.
