5.0 out of 5 stars Siza's master drawings, April 13, 2000
By Antonio (Portugal) - See all my reviews
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.
