History of Architecture and Design Season 1 Episode 1
Overview:
In the first broadcast, Dr. Geoffrey Baker uses the house he designed for himself, Fletcher’s Well near Newcastle upon Tyne, to explain some of the practical constraints an architect faces in the design of any building and to suggest the role played by aesthetic considerations. This discussion goes a long way to explain how contemporary architects think about architecture, and in what ways they have been influenced by the modern period we have chosen to study.
