London Minimun [Spanish]

As someone who loves both London and minimalist architecture, I have to say this book doesn't *quite* redeem its promise. I think the fault may lie in the series' concept rather than the book per se. While it does sound many of the right notes - Pawsonian asperity first and foremost - by restricting the ambit to London, the authors miss out on many of the most interesting trendlets in this most adaptable style. It's both pretty and well-presented, but as a comprehensive statement doesn't entirely succeed. For a more comprehensive take on *architecture* as opposed to decor, I'd look at *The Architecture of Minimalism*; for those looking for a more purely idea-driven sourcebook, I'd check out *Minimum*.

For anyone wanting to discover what is minimalism and wher it came from, this a must. No one has managed to outline and seize precisely the essence of it as well as H. YPMA. Outstanding photos, and a fantastic insigt into London
