'In recent times, the architecture/nature discussion has encouraged a dual response: architects have built in the image of nature - a token environmentalism - while environmentalists have focused too narrowly on the technologies of ecology and sustainability, invariably without paying sufficient attention to spatial and visual issues. In this book, Hagan argues for a new relationship between architecture and nature: a contract that renegotiates the tension between environmental processes and their formal consequences. 'Taking Shape' makes a major and provocative contribution to the debates concerning the ethics and aesthetics of environmentalism within architecture and urban design.'
Mohsen Mostafavi, Chairman, The Architectural Association
