Este libro penetrará aún más en
la relación de la función de la
forma en los proyectos. Enfocado
concretamente en la historia
de las técnicas del dibujo, en la
descripción de los diferentes
conceptos de función.
Todo ello quedará constatado a
través de los dibujos que describen
entre otros criterios la función
estructural [arreglos de actividades
o materiales], la función física
[como la acústica, el tráfico o el
alumbrado], la función psicológica
o la función social de las formas
construidas.

Durante el siglo XIX y la mayor parte del siglo XX, las discusiones sobre
estilo giraron alrededor del puro formalismo o el puro funcionalismo. El
estilo, como el modo de unir formas, fue atrapado en la producción de
consistencia y la identidad a través de las formas arquitectónicas.

El objetivo era establecer si los sistemas de diferenciación identificados
con anterioridad exploraban su estilo como el formalismo o estaban
basados en una nueva idea de estilo que trabajaría con la forma y la función
simultáneamente como un modo de utilizar la forma para derribar la función
dispuesto para cada tipo de modernismo de principios del siglo XX.
