When renowned professor, architectural historian and critic Kenneth Frampton wrote his seminal essay ‘Towards a Critical Regionalism: Six Points for an Architecture of Resistance’ (1983), he shot a sharp arrow into the side of the Modernist corpse. He argued against the ubiquity and uniformity of International Modernism in favour of an architecture that was distinct in its local character and identity. Over 30 years later, Guest-Editor Tom Verebes went to interview Frampton in his office at Columbia University to see if he could convince him that contemporary design and production technologies might be the means of realising a new distinctive urbanism.
