Contemporary Architecture North America. Contemporary Architecture North America examines the styles, perceptions and culture of North America s built environment and the impact of theoreticians such as Robert Venturi and Denise Scott-Brown, articulating varied arguments and opinions on the subject that guide the reader in further discussion. With commissioned essays addressing and contextualising the buildings featured, and re-published significant texts by commentators in the field, the Contemporary Architecture series invites international comparisons, shattering stereotypes and clear-cut distinctions typically used to define each geographic area.
