Abstract
Presents structure as an indispensable architectural element that is thoroughly integrated and involved in the making of architecture, and that plays a significant aesthetical role. Uses more than a hundred examples from many countries. Considers relationships between architectural and structural form, building exterior and function, interior structure, structural detailing, structure and light, and representation and symbolism.
