Water and Architecture first addresses the symbolism of water as a design element, then examines specific applications in all kinds of structures and settings worldwide, from classical to postmodern. Charles Moore's lively and instructive text also looks at basic design principles and environmental issues.
Documentary illustrations and plans accompany the text and each section is complemented by a portfolio of spectacular colour photographs bringing the locations and ideas discussed vividly to life.
This is an important, highly readable and stunningly illustrated study.
