Abstract

This chapter promotes the city as integrated with its metropolitan landscape. It sees the city less as a series of architectural figures (autonomous works of art, technology and craftsmanship) on the common infrastructural ground of public space (museums, libraries, town halls, streets, squares and parks circumscribed by fields and transport systems) and more as the suspended animation of serial spatial practices negotiated across timeframes varying between the fleeting and the endless stretching out of the present. The corollaries to such a view are unpredictable, affirmatively uncertain, but not without confident commitment, clear architectural expression and evident territorial claims and differences.
