Description and Table of Contents

Description

As a legend in their own time, the team of Venturi and Scott Brown have been equally affective in theory as well as practice, consistently producing books and buildings that change the course of architecture. "On Houses and Housing", through articles and project descriptions, charts the formulation of their ideas and realised buildings. It is in this complete record of a particular segment of the Venturis' work that their versatility is revealed. "On Houses and Housing" illustrates a great diversity in styles and commissions. Social housing, such as the seminal Guild House or orientally inspired Chinatown Housing, are included, as well as designs for luxurious individual residences. Their range proves to be as wide as their concept of "home".
