Courthouse design and ideals of justice

Linda Mulcahy connects courthouse architecture with the ideas and institutions that shape legal proceedings. The book traces courthouse design through history, using the trial environment as a way to consider how societies have understood justice and due process. Its subject brings architecture into conversation with legal and civic history, asking what public spaces can express about the principles they are built to serve.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in courthouse and public-building design
  • Those exploring the history of justice and due process
  • Readers interested in the relationship between architecture and civic institutions

Book overview

Legal Architecture addresses how the environment in which the trial takes place can be seen as a physical expression of our relationship with ideals of justice; as it approaches the history of courthouse design as a reflection of the troubled history of notions of due process.
