Description

With writings by Thom Mayne, this monograph illustrates a selection of projects - many presented for the first time - from this LA based group whose work stands as a response to the context and diversity of the urban environment. The book gives an insight into the work of this firm, covering the earlier works, such as the Venice III houses to the recently completed Crawford house and Salick Healthcare building, as well as the Higashi, Nara and Chiba projects in Japan.
