| Abstract
|
:
|
Driven by his three tenets of architecture, Diversity, Individuality and Naughtiness. Will Alsop paints his way into architecture through a design process that acts as a conduit for the dreams and aspiration of others. Moving from public consultation to the privacy of his painting studio ù it is here, born in the liquidity of paint, the flourish of line and the serendipity of collage, that Alsop disengages from cultural baggage, discards the tyranny of taste and opens up to a world of less predictable and more diverse solutions

Whether the world approves of these designs or not does not devalue the artistic process which produces such rich, varied. challenging and extraordinary outcomes. Tom Porter traces and reveals the inclusive and more private phases of this unusual procedure, and in doing so uncovers a treasure trove of ideas for transforming the process of architectural design. Whether a working architect or a student embarking on the first steps towards creating your own design process, this book offers an insight and example into how engaging with the public, before painting into architecture, can offer the most stimulating and inspirational solutions. --Book Jacket
