Description: In Terminal Architecture, Martin Pawley argues that nearly all modern architecture is misconceived. To embrace a genuinely innovative architectural future would entail a radical shift in values and Pawley considers new vocabularies to achieve this aim. The vision described in Terminal Architecture is an apocalyptic one, spelling the end of architecture and the city as we know them, and cannot fail to stimulate debate.

"Brilliant and beautifully written"--Jonathan Glancey, The Architects' Journal

Brief description: Martin Pawley is the author of several books including Theory and Design in the Second Machine Age (1990). He was editor of the magazine World Architecture for several years.
