Public Spaces

Public Spaces is the fourth title in BDP's Serial Books Architecture & Urbanism series. It features the most recent work of CHORA, Raoul Bunschoten's urban workshop. Looking at prototypical public spaces, such as clusters of small courtyards - the 'cities' of Paris - to the ceremonial space of the folded ground - the 'Prado' - behind the Prado Museum, Madrid, CHORA proposes new ways of engaging with the urban environment through local, regional, national and global strategies.
