Book Description

July 23, 1999
edited by Alexander Caragonne


Colin Rowe has achieved legendary status as one of a handful of outstanding studio teachers of architecture and urban design to emerge within the last two generations. His writings reveal the powerful insight and dispassionate, authoritative intelligence that mark him as one of the preeminent architectural thinkers of this perplexing half century.

Divided into three volumes, in more or less chronological order, As I Was Saying includes articles, essays, eulogies, lectures, reviews, and memoranda. Some appeared only in obscure journals, and many are published here for the first time.

Editorial Reviews

Review



"One imagines blood in the study. If so, it was worth his pain and our patience. For here at last are no less than three volumes of Rowe's papers, written since 1953. . . . Three volumes are not enough: I want more."

About the Author

Colin Rowe was the 1995 recipient of the Gold Medal from the Royal Institute of British Architects. He is only the third postwar critic, after Sir John Summerson and Sir Nikolaus Pevsner, to be awarded the medal, which is the architecture profession's highest accolade in the United Kingdom.
