Frente a líneas que no dejan nada atrás by Robin Evans

“…Presentation This text bears important questions on the notion of “interpretation” in representation in architecture, which is commonly understood as the disclosure of a so-called “meaning” that lies hidden somewhere between the mysteries of the work and the murky brain of the architect.
