"New Vernacular Architecture" considers the synthesis of modernity and tradition in contemporary architecture. Focusing on 37 buildings completed in the last decade, it examines a broad range of examples of international architecture that reinterpret rather than revive traditional forms, materials and construction techniques. Vicky Richardson presents a historical analysis of the vernacular in architecture, demonstrating how it has come to signify what she describes as 'architecture in denial'.
