Synopsis

This volume studies the nature of architectural influences across political, physical, and cultural boundaries. It examines conditions in Latin America where physical barriers have been placed in order to attempt to prevent cross fertilization, which has had a specific influence on the built environment. Within America there are borderlands between cities and deserts; these "edge" environments have particular solutions and are also featured in this volume.

Revue de presse

"...provides an enticing smorgasbord of contemporary readings of space while viewing it – as the Greeks would have had it – the idea of a boundary as where space begins and not where it ends." World Architecture
