●內容簡介——

現代英國建築的主要專家和熱情倡導者埃琳·哈伍德給出了1938年至1963年英國建築的概述——世紀中葉的建築。

這些建築越來越受歡迎，人們越來越瞭解它們作為我們生活背景的重要性，範圍從皇家節日大廳、紐卡斯爾市政廳到交易碼頭和道格拉斯碼頭，從預製屋和冰淇淋店到考文垂大教堂和黃金巷莊園。作者用非技術性的、外行人的語言寫了關於設計、建築以及這些建築對我們城鎮生活的影響。

作者把各種各樣的建築排列成:房屋和公寓；教堂和公共建築；辦公室；商店；陳列室和咖啡館；酒店和酒店；電影院、劇院和音樂廳；工業建築和運輸。有一個很有見地的介紹，將這些建築放在20世紀建築的大背景下，並放在全球範圍內。所有這些都被拍了下來，這對於任何對我們的建築遺產感興趣的人來説都是必不可少的。

Leading expert and passionate advocate of modern British architecture Elain Harwood gives the best overview of British architecture from 1938 to 1963 – mid-century buildings.

Growing in popularity and with an increasing understanding of their importance as a background to our lives, the buildings range from the Royal Festival Hall, Newcastle City Hall and to Deal Pier and Douglas ferry terminal, from prefabs and ice cream parlours to Coventry Cathedral and the Golden Lane Estate. The author writes in non-technical, layman's language about the design, architecture and also the influence of these buildings on the lives of our towns and cities.  

The author has arranged the huge variety of buildings into: Houses and Flats: Churches and Public Buildings; Offices; Shops; Showrooms and Cafes; Hotels and Public Houses; Cinemas, Theatres and Concert Halls; Industrial Buildings and Transport. There is an insightful introduction that places these buildings in the context of 20th-century architecture generally and globally. All fantastically photographed to make this a must have for anyone interested in our built heritage.
