James Steele, in his book “Architecture Today”(London) phaidon,?

James Steele, in his book “Architecture Today”(London) phaidon, (1997) says that European postmodernists have shown a far greater interest in urban design, contextualism and town planning issues than their American counterparts. Charles Jencks in “The Language of post-modern Architecture” (London) Academy editions, (1977) has said that, “this patching of urban, public space is the antithesis of Modernistic practice-the free standing functionalist monuments”. Name a European Architect whose work shows as interest in a return to elements of urban design (e.g corridor streets, squares etc) which predated the Modern Movement and give and brief description of work
