The New Regional Pattern: Industries and Gardens, Workshops and Farms. HILBERSEIMER L [31267]

The New Regional Pattern:

Published: Chicago, Paul Theobald,
Date: 1949.
Description: xvi, 197pp inc 123 b&w illustrations, bibliog. Cloth. 28x22. Ex Stevenage Development Corporation copy with stamps, vg thus in dust wrapper (this a little chipped, but now glassine protected).
Notes: Hilberseimer's notable work, ‘The New City’, 1944, looked specifically at urban problems. The present work deals with the city regional scale. It advocates Mumford-like ideas of regional planning ‘integrating agriculture and industry and merging vast territory into an organic self-sufficiency.’ Much of what the author suggests seems very relevant today.
