This handsome book is a culmination of a series of exhibitions held in Massachusetts; London; Bern, Switzerland; Lisbon; and Tokyo that showcased architect David Adjaye’s photographic survey of Africa’s urban environment.
Six of the seven paperback volumes in this boxed set, edited by Peter Allison, consist of pictures of the diverse architectural forms that exist on the continent. The author, who was born in Tanzania but practices in London, should be commended for attempting to document Africa so thoroughly. The book serves as a visual archive for architects, urban planners, and architectural historians interested in the continent’s built environment.
