Seller's Description:
Near fine. Illustrated throughout in color and b/w. 158 pages. Slim 4to, glossy yellow printed wrappers. Barcelona: Actar, 2001. First edition. Very slight ripple at bottom of first several pages, otherwise a near fine copy of a rather scarce book. This book was conceived as a collection of essays, images, and projects, each offering a purchase from the urban milieu of Detroit during the decade of the 1990s. What began as a strictly architectural inquiry into the material remnants of Detroit quickly led to research into the economic, political, and cultural conditions underpinning the city's particular urban formation and the extreme urbanism it fostered. The book includes design research projects, commentary on those projects, written essays that examine larger conditions that transcend the individual design proposals, and photographic exploration of Detroit's material sobriety.
