Open LibraryAbout this book
In Cities, Lawrence Halprin examines the basic elements of the cityscape: the open spaces that give a city its character and the spaces within which its life takes place (streets, plazas, parks, the private living spaces and small gardens); street furniture (kiosks, benches, light); the city floor (asphalt, brick, concrete); water; trees; roof views; and what Halprin calls the "choreography" of the city. This edition includes a section on Halprin's fountains.
