Sommario/riassunto

The aesthetics of urban life offer a curious quality, one that is both highly visible and hidden, both openly influencing and subtly imprinting. Exploring the encounter with the aesthetics, images and material design of urban life, this book offers analytic insights into contemporary urban space.
