Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture (Museum of Modern Art Papers on Architecture)

important text - spawned a lot of vacuous ideas but has a kernel of significant analysis

A great book by a great architect and theorist. A milestone publication.

The book is good

Interesting and educating book useful for budding architect and those interested in architecture like me

The format, while great for images and its appreciation, makes it difficult for a comfort reading possition. Also, I believe while excellent ideas, Venturi doesn't always express himself in the most adecuate way.

A quintessential book in every architect's life.

Finally I got a new copy of one of my favorite books in architecture theory. I lost my old one and was really happy to find it on the book market. A really great book about the complex issues and sometimes contradictory matters in architecture.
