Description
Internationally renowned architect Harry Seidler discusses the aims emerging from the United Nations Habitat Conference as they relate both practically and theoretically to major metropolitan and regional growth centres he has developed in Australia. Seidler's planning designs emphasize the 'cohesion of the whole' -- harmonizing building forms and landscapes with the age-old concept of pedestrian town centres.
