Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thresholds, Vol. 22
Paradoxically, however, the same set of global circum stances allow for the production of local meaning, whether the setting is the Middle East, Hong Kong, or urban u.s.a. Faced with this reality, it seems that now would be a good time to again consider the role of fash ion in society, and by extension, architecture's connec tion to fashion. The writings contained in this issue are a diverse set of responses to our contemporary condi tion. They illustrate through specific cases that the global need not erase the individual. And so the cycle begins again.
