Notes on the City and its Architecture; Borka Bobovec
Alen Žunić
Abstract
The book written by Borka Bobovec is thematically focused on various urban sections of Zagreb City. The author deals with a wide range of scales: from the large scale city areas over some smaller urban zones to individual buildings whose exceptional design or position within the urban fabric added great value to their immediate urban context. The book predominantly covers buildings and urban projects from the second half of the 20th century, i.e. the period of Late Modernism up to contemporary challenges of the 21st century. The essays compiled here had previously been published in the magazine “Korak u prostor” (2013-2017). The book is structurally divided into three main chapters - the Skin, the Network and the Point. Each of them contains five thematically related essays accompanied by one introductory photograph.
