Synopsis

This extraordinary collection of thoughts and images adds up to a positive prophecy for a future in which the architecture and stewardship of daily life becomes humanity's greatest work of art. It is a future where standardised codes and arguments give way to commitment, creativity and beauty - where our deepest needs and desires are holistically embraced by thoughtful design. The Creative Community by Vernon D. Swaback is a journey through ideas and places, stretching our imaginations and inspiring us to move beyond our patterns of production-driven uniformity. This book is both invitation and guide for giving our best to the future by first creating it for ourselves. It illuminates a subject that is most often buried in planner's jargon, making it as personal as our own homes, which of course it is.
