这本前所未有的书籍的副标题来自后现代主义偶像罗伯特•文图里（Robert Venturi）对密斯•凡•德•罗（Mies van der Rohe）的格言“少即是多”的坚定回应。后现代主义是20世纪最具争议的风格之一，始于20世纪70年代，在20世纪80年代和90年代进入了兼收并蓄的不遵循常规的高潮，在经历了将近40年的发展之后，如今又重新流行起来。《后现代主义建筑》展示了这场运动的代表作，它们颜色和形式各异，且来自世界各地。

"A curated collection of Postmodern architecture in all its glorious array of vivid non-conformity

This unprecedented book takes its subtitle from Postmodernist icon Robert Venturi's spirited response to Mies van der Rohe's dictum that ‘less is more'. One of the 20th century's most controversial styles, Postmodernism began in the 1970s, reached a fever pitch of eclectic non-conformity in the 1980s and 90s, and after nearly 40 years is now enjoying a newfound popularity. Postmodern Architecture showcases examples of the movement in a rainbow of hues and forms from around the globe.
