Urban Prospects

The book contains 10 essays, which analyze towns and urban elements written with the authors personal angle. All of them have significant meaning for the articulation of architecture. In Poetik til bygningskunst (Poetics in Architecture) Erik Christian Sørensen experimented with a specific way of writing, where every single sentence becomes a strong and condensed statement about the elements in architecture. The book is in English and is illustrated with a large number of photos and drawings by the author. The illustrations are related to studies in numerous European countries.
