Louis Sauer is known in the US as one of the greatest housing
experts. He achieved national fame when many of his innovative
designs were built in Society Hill, the historic colonial
neighborhood in Philadelphia. The quality, variety and reasoning
behind his creative solutions for the renewal of large areas of old
and derelict urban context were the exemplars for those who
followed him in this field. The five designs included in this book
are selected from the period (1961-79) when Sauer practiced in
Philadelphia. His work is exceptional for its variety and wealth of
solutions. Some examples are his modernistic forms, intelligent
understanding of the history of the locale and the requirements of
diverse urban scales. The five works Antonino Saggio is presenting
in this publication give a picture of his outstanding design and
the ingenuity of his solutions when faced with diverse design
challenges and scales. See Interview on this book
