It has no permanent resident vision of itself as modern like Los Angeles it has no imperial patron like Paris's Mitterand no Olympian vision like Barcelona's. It is a city where what happened in Paris or Tokyo or Los Angeles or Milan yesterday affects what happens in studios today and what happens today affects Paris Tokyo Los Angeles or Milan tomorrow. It is also a city of designers listening to and watching it and each other. Since it is too large and diffuse for a dominant style no single New York exists. Connecting the diverse images one theme persists: the moving but unmoved city as site and element of design' from the introduction With an 11-page introductory essay and wonderful photos of old new renovations industrial techno and much more.
