Today's bustling tourism has proved itself a doubleedged sword: on the one hand it acquaints great numbers of people with cities and sights they might otherwise have missed; on the other it focuses on individual landmarks that the city as a whole is obscured and confused. Steen Eiler Rasmussen concentrates here on the town as a unity, as a whole composed of buildings and places.Most of the town plans are scaled to 1:20,000 for easy overall comparison; several famous places are reduced to 1:2000 for closer comparison. The buildings are for the most part presented in three views: the first, en face: then the same view, minus the faade; and finally a top view, as if the upper stories had been removed. The result is a picture not of static faade and monument but of rooms and houses and towns where people live.
