Information About

Architecture's function is perceived as one of "relating its attributes as a technological product to a particular place and time and as a vital connector that links technology with culture". The regionalist design approach seeks to articulate this linkage. The book provides a valuable point of reference for architects, students of architecture and of related fields,and for the reader researching the architectural typology of developing countries.
