Dostępność:na zamowienie The configuration of a home is always a current topic. This superlative illustrated volume presents contemporary architecture from around the world. The unique and notable work being done by contemporary architects is generously presented in this illustrated volume. Their designs can be understood as homes intended to be interpretations of life and the environment. Each of the forty examples included in "Houses" is represented by a wide array of perspectives and details of the houses, apartments and lofts that these sophisticated architects have developed; while exterior photographs and window views link them to the colours and forms of the surrounding landscapes.
SKIDMORE OWINGS & MERRIL
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)
