Written over a period of 20 years from 1970, shortly after his graduation from the Architectural Association (AA), to 1990, the essays cover a wide range of architectural concerns: domestic space, society's involvement with building types, aspects of geometry, modes of projection and drawing as a process for generating ideas. The book includes 'Mies van der Rohe's Paradoxical Symmetries' and other essays first published in AA Files. Evans's writings are supported by a new introduction and an annotated bibliography by Richard Difford. This AA Documents publication is a re-edition of the 1997 essay collection originally published by AA Publications.\r","brand":"Robin Evans","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44440933957868,"sku":"9781907896972","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9781907896972.jpg?v=1720156504","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/translations-from-drawing-to-building-and-other-essays","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
