Books by Steen Eiler Rasmussen

Steen Eiler Rasmussen (1898–1990) was a Danish architect, urban planner, and writer who spent much of his career at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He is known for his work on the planning of Copenhagen and for two books that brought architectural thinking to general audiences: London: The Unique City (1934) and Experiencing Architecture (1957). His writing combined scholarly rigor with genuine accessibility, and Experiencing Architecture in particular became one of the most widely assigned introductions to architectural experience in the English-speaking world.
