Comparison of Aldo Rossi's The Architecture of the City (1966) with Christopher Alexander's The Timeless Way of Building (1979) in the Context of the Concept of Permanence in Architecture
Abstract: Postmodern historicism debates that emerged in the architecture of the 1960s and 1970s have led to the questioning of the concept of ‘permanence’ in architecture on the modern and postmodern sides of architecture. Permanence in architectural theory is also a concept that theorists have formed different views and approaches on during this period. Aldo Rossi and Christopher Alexander, two architects have been influential in modern-postmodern discussions with their works and …
