Coles Alison and Peter Smithson: The Space Between at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The Space Between is the third part of the collected works of the legendary English Brutalist architects Alison (1928–93) and Peter Smithson (1923–2003), a complement to the volumes The Charged Void: Architecture and The Charged Void: Urbanism (respectively published in 2001 and 2005). While the Charged Void books dealt with both the built and unbuilt projects of the Smithsons, supplemented with brief commentary, The Space Between is a richly illustrated text book on the architects, with drawings and photographs mostly by the Smithsons themselves. It can be considered a summary of their thinking as architects that spans the entirety of their career, attempting to grasp the identity of places through the observation of everyday life, developing what they liked to call “a sensibility of place.”
