‘She looked like a bag lady, not an architect.’ So says Pravrajika Vrajaprana, a female swami of the Vedanta Society of Southern California, a religious organisation, when asked to describe Lutah Maria Riggs. Hairnet in place, along with ‘a ratty leopard-skin coat’, Riggs (1896–1984) cared nothing about personal appearances.

‘It’s not like traffic or taxis blaring at night,’ says artist Scott Houston McBee, cocking his shaggy blond head a bit, as James Andrew, his partner – a decorator – chimes in: ‘Not like traffic, at all.’ Suddenly, as if on cue, a lively song enters the flat from the adjacent street, a childish song, warbled in multiple little voices, all of them highly pitched.

Awkwardly thick and squat in form, A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction is not a sexy book. The art direction is minimal: no fonts delight, no layouts divert. Its creamy pages – 1,171 of them – are innocent of colour images, and what illustrations do exist are mostly murky black-and-white photographs, as if spat from a printer perilously low on toner and then photocopied. It is as basic as basic can be, and therein lies its brilliance.
