Description

Explore the profound intellectual and practical world of Marco Frascari through this essential volume from the Ashgate Studies in Architecture series. Frascari, a visionary Italian architect and academic, believed that design should go beyond mere structure to create buildings that inspire happiness and pleasure in those who inhabit them. This collection provides a deep look into the theoretical substance of the architectural discipline. Readers can trace his journey from his formative years in Venice, where he studied under the mentorship of Carlo Scarpa, to his influential career as a full-time academic in North America. Frascari is widely recognized for his extraordinary texts that examine how architecture functions both as a practice and a theory. Whether you are a student of architecture, a professional designer, or a theorist, this book offers a unique perspective on the discipline. It captures the essence of a thinker who sought to bridge the gap between the intellectual roots of design and the physical reality of the built environment. This work is a vital addition to any library focused on the history and theory of architectural thought.
