## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful
*by R***N on August 4, 2014*

Great seller - the book was in better condition than expected.I love the book also; great for undergraduate architecture students. It is basically a series of essays, lectures. I think of it as a collection of short stories that address the title.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars
*by S***T on March 1, 2016*

Very good book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A broad view of a topical architectural issue
*by M***I on February 6, 2011*

Regionalism has occupied the architectural discourse under different guises, picturesque, vernacular, popular and organic architecture, at least since the early 19th century. In the 1980 Kenneth Frampton revived the interest in regionalism by defining with "Critical Regionalism" a contemporary typological and tectonic approach.It is clear from this anthology that regionalism still eludes a precise definition, which is in a way a healthy aspect of an approach that should be primarily local even when embracing some universal values.The broad inclusiveness of the texts, spanning from 1929 lectures by Le Corbusier to the last decade (up to 2005) makes this work very valuable not just as a history of ideas, but also as away to realize the deep roots that link modern architecture to the local ways of building. Today we can interpret Regionalism as Sam Mockbee's Rural Studio work or as the Regenerative Architecture proposed by Steven Moore (both included in the anthology), with its obvious connections to the idea of social and ecological sustainability.I have found the texts to be very stimulating for my architecture students, and not too hard to read. Seminal theorists, such as Christopher Alexander and Juhani Pallasmaa, are included. The author's introductions are informative and explanatory without being unduly long. It is a good choice of essays, some hard to find in print, that makes a good reading also outside the classroom.
