Samenvatting: ' "Architecture is at once a structural, practical, and visual art. Without solidity, it is dangerous; without usefulness, it is merely large-scale sculpture; and without beauty, it is no more than utilitarian construction," write the authors of this book. In their book they deal brilliantly with this triple aspect of the complex art that deeply affects our lives as the most pervasive of all human-made things.'
