Alvaro Siza's architectural sketches commence with his very first confrontation with the city for which he intends to build; they accompany each of his projects over many years. The characteristics of his architectural style are very much in evidence in this collection of his sketches.

Siza's master drawings,
By Antonio (Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: City Sketches / Stadtskizzen / Desenhos urbanos (English, German and Portuguese Edition) (Hardcover)
In this wonderful book by Birkhauser/editors we become aware of Siza's spectacular drawings. This ones are just about cities. With a few lines and also in very few minutes Siza "catches" the spirit and structure of the spaces habited by him. Siza is a very good architect, of course. He is also someone who loves to draw; almost anywhere and anytime.
