From the Inside Flap
Gordon Cullen Visions of Urban Design David Gosling Gordon Cullen was a key motivator and activist in the development of British theories of urban design in the post–war period. Illustrated with over 300 works selected from the thousands of drawings Gordon Cullen made during his lifetime, this anthology documents his influential career as an urban theorist, artist and illustrator from 1930 to 1990. The majority of his beautiful drawings have never been published before except in professional reports, and this book contains numerous drawings executed for the pleasure of observation as well as those produced for his many consultancies. With the assistance of family and friends, the author charts his life and work and comments on his contribution to twentieth–century urban design. His graphic techniques and their application and influence are examined as well as his attitude to the symbolism of objects in the environment.
