Architectural Voices: Listening to Old BuildingsArchitectural Voices

SPECIAL OFFER

David Littlefield and Saskia Lewis

Published by Wiley (2007)

Following on from David Littlefield’s talk ‘Reimagining Buildings’ on 14 Sept in the run up to Open House London, Open House is selling ‘Architectural Voices: Listening to Old Buildings’. If a building could speak, what would it say? In this book the authors argue that buildings have voices and that it is worth listening to what they have to say. The voices of an abandoned cathedral, a former brothel, a stately home, among others, are revealed, opening up a new dimension to understanding the lives and meanings of buildings.
