This monograph surveys thirty of the most iconic buildings designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), the legendary American architecture firm, since its founding in 1936. Along with such architects as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier, SOM is largely credited with propagating the Internationalist style of architecture that filled the New York skyline with such midcentury masterworks as Lever House (1952) and Chase Manhattan Plaza (1961). Before the current age of the super skyscraper, SOM designed what was for almost thirty years the world's tallest building, Chicago's Sears Tower (1973), as well as the city's John Hancock Center (1970)

When we think of American architecture we think of the likes of Wright, Meier and Eisenman - in years to come one or more of the names in this book could well achieve that level of renown. 26 young architects or architectural practices are showcased here, not just the urban sophisticates of New York but creative types from less familiar municipalities like Milwaukee and Palo Alto. A total of 72 projects - mainly residential - are presented with clear plans, photos and English/German text, including Slade Architecture's literally dotty Pixel House, Miro Rivera Architects' reed-effect bridge and the industrial-effect houses of Richard Rosa.
