Description: BARCELONA: The Urban Evolution of a Compact City Applied Research & Design Publishing 2014 first edition large paperback with French flaps 468 pages Definitive text by Joan Busquets Lavishly and profusely illustrated with photographs, maps and plans in colour and black and white. Barcelona can be regarded as a prototype of a European Mediterranean city with a long urban tradition. As such, it has undergone a specific process of historic formation, density and compactness of urban form, evolution by extension rather than by reform. This book centres on the construction of Barcelona, taking as its basis the most important planning operations and city projects, and drawing on various sources for the different phases. Now in the 21st century, new prospects are opening up thanks to the recent European institutional framework, particularly changes in the economic system as we enter a post-industrial phase. An excellent book in near mint condition. Thanks for looking.
