interview in brief



Vincent Scully, architectural historian at Yale University, believes the consequences of architectural modernism led to a revival of traditional architecture. The current trend among architects seems to embrace the notion of "culture as an act of will," rejecting the modernist spirit of Zeitgeist. Scully discusses the role of the architect in urban design and planning, and the hope he has for the future of urban planning.

Vincent Scully's American Architecture and Urbanism was published by Henry Holt & Company Inc. in 1988.
