FOR EC. RELPH, the landscape of late twentieth-century cities must be
envisioned as a total environment—not just streets and buildings but bill-
boards and parking meters as well. The Modern Urban Landscape traces
the developments since 1880 in architecture, technology, planning, and
society that have formed the visual context of daily life. Each of these
shaping influences is often viewed in isolation, but Relph surveys the
ways in which they have operated independently to create what we see
when we walk down a street, shop in a mall, or stare through a wind-
shield on an expressway.
Two sets of ideas and fashions, Relph argues, have had an especially
important impact on urban landscapes in the twentieth century. An “inter-
nationalism” made possible by new building technologies and design ide-
ologies has replaced regional style and custom as the dominant feature
of city appearance, while a firm belief in the merits of self-consciousness
has imposed logical analysis and technical manipulation on such com-
monplace objects as curbstones and park benches. “As a result,” writes
Relph, “the modern urban landscape is both rationalized and artificial,
which is another way of saying that it is intensely human.”
This edition features a new preface in which the author identifies the
major visible changes in urban landscapes over the past thirty years,
including destination architecture, coffee shops, condominium towers,
revitalized downtown streets, and the creation of edge cities. He also
considers the less visible yet pervasive impacts associated with the emer-
gence of electronic technologies and sustainable development.
