"This book represents a programmatic examination of urban architecture. This examination is conducted through the use of collages, texts and concrete projects which together convey what constitutes the architectural project, namely, a theoretical concept, a vivid imagination and the concrete building plan. The book's principal thesis is that urban spaces cannot be conceived today as a continual whole, but rather that the city is articulated according to objects in all possible dimensions; this means that the picture of a city is shaped less by convention as by the quality of its architectural objects, its theme and its structural program. This apparent freedom of objects, however, is confronted with its relationship to its context and to its characteristically distinctive field, which it is to interpret". Klaus Theo Brenner
