looking at european architecture :

a critical view is the outcome of a process

which brings together architects, historians

and curators to provide an overview of

European architectural criticism. Its objective

is to encompass the concerns of writers and

practitioners within the 27 Member States of the

European Union at the start of this millennium.

For each country, there is a text published in the

original language and translated into English.

Urban integration, renewal, sustainable

development and the consequences of climate

change are some of the common denominators

of European architectural discussion.

This publication offers an outline of many

diverse, yet complementary, points of view.
