Recenzii

'The coming together of a man who has written a lot and another who has built a lot produces an oddly satisfying book on architecture. Unlike other books on the subject, 'Talking Architecture' is shorn of the glib double-spread colour photography that reduces buildings to a dream like seduction-beautifully deceptive and devoid of the messy reality of Indian life. Instead, the book poses serious questions, the sort of questions government and civic authorities should have been asking of themselves. Why are our cities so despicably ugly and inhospitable? Is there an Indian architecture?'
'Raj Rewal's architecture evokes the structures of an earlier historical period, and this book-length interview captures the interface between the historical and the contemporary through many facets, such as the mathematical foundations of the constructions or the inter-leaving of courtyards and roof terraces, and such like, all of which provide an additional understanding of his strikingly impressive contemporary buildings.'
''Talking Architecture' is a lively conversation between a distinguished architect and a noted philosopher about serious issues which should be of interest to all who are concerned with the state of architecture and urban environment.'
