La città capitalista, by Giovanni Brino

October 30, 2011 by Fosco Lucarelli Leave a Comment

An ambitious title for a 1978 obscure yet brilliantly illustrated book by italian scholar studying urban planning in UCLA Giovanni Brino.

Just reviewed on Archinect by Orhan Ayyüce. Here his flickr set on the subject.

Love the titling made with that 70’s digital font, analogous to the one in the “talking” car in 1972’s “Reyner Banham loves Los Angeles“.

Via: Ethel Baraona
