Summary:
In the mid 1960s Aldo Rossi launched what in retrospect appears a heroic endeavour: a redefinition of architecture founded in the knowledge of the rules and forms that constitute "the European city". Understanding this type of city as a collective artefact, Rossi sought to lead architecture out of the impasse created by a technocratic interpretation of functionalism after World War II. Tendenza, with Aldo Rossi and Giorgio Grassi as its main protagonists, proposed the study of existing cities as architectural phenomena, intending to identify enduring formal patterns that could be reworked into elements of a new design. In this issue of "OASE" these ideas and their bearings on architectural practice are traced through the work of Carel Weeber, arguably the most controversial and successful architect to adopt the Italian ideas and transform them in the Dutch context. This issue will examine the relevance of the experience of Tendenza now, against the background of the almost complete erosion of the urban nature of much of suburbanized Europe. Is the reference to "the European city" still tenable? The transformation of these ideas and design solutions in Holland allows us to gauge their effect on the architectural discipline and their contribution to rethinking existing cities.

1966 was a promising year. Aldo Rossi published "The Architecture of the City" and Robert Venturi came out with "Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture". The stage seemed set for a productive critique of modernism and the development of a more mature approach to the intricacies of architecture. Architecture seemed on the verge of rediscovering its collective nature and about to redefine its knowledge by starting from the city.
