The Prodigious Builders / Bernard Rudofsky(驚異の工匠たち)
土着建築を再評価し、ユニークに論じた風土建築論です。著者は『Architecture Without Architects(建築家なしの建築)』でお馴染みのバーナード・ルドフスキー。日本語訳『驚異の工匠たちー知られざる建築の博物誌』が鹿島出版会から出版されています。
The Prodigious Builders considers an even wider selection of vernacular building than Architecture Without Architects, and adds erudite commentary based on insights gained by Mr. Rudofsky as he traveled many years observing and photographing. His ideas seem to be even more relevant when compared with the limp proposals offered by so many contemporary architects. Exciting stuff!
