Soon to Come.....A new Book by Frederick Fisher and Stephen Harby.
Venturi’s Rome will be, in essence, a guidebook to the city of Rome seen through the eyes of Robert Venturi, re- interpreted by two subsequent Rome Prize Fellows and architects, Frederick Fisher and Stephen Harby.
We propose to take the reader on a journey through time and ideas by visiting and discussing thirty-three Roman buildings in ten chapters that exemplify the revolutionary ideas of Venturi’s book. Interspersed with Venturi’s ideas are our own, drawn from our practice and observations as architects. In that sense the book will be an essay, and it will incorporate Venturi’s vision with our view of the way we humans live in a fragile relationship to nature, with our houses figuratively and sometimes literally built on ruins.
