Comprehensive monograph on one of America's greatest living
architects by award-winning author and architecture critic Robert
McCarter. This in-depth monograph is devoted to one of the leading
United States architects on the contemporary scene: Steven Holl
(b.1947). Richly illustrated with hundreds of colour photographs
and Holl's own watercolours, the book introduces the artist's
personality and works, and the studio he founded in 1976, Steven
Holl architects. Holl studied architecture at the University of
Washington at Seattle, and later in Rome and at the Architectural
Association in London. He has worked both in the United States and
in Europe, and a great deal in the East, especially in Japan. His
most important designs, outstanding in their respect for the
cultural and historical environment in which they are set, include
the Makuhari residential complex in Japan, the St. Ignatius chapel
at the University of Seattle, the Museum of Contemporary Art in
Helsinki and the extension of the Cranbrook Institute of Science at
Bloomfield Hills in Michigan. A professor at the Graduate School of
Architecture of Columbia University, Holl has held courses and
given lectures in several other institutions in the United States.
He has won many awards, including the Arnold W Brunner prize for
architecture in 1990, and the Alvar Aalto medal in 1998. Robert
McCarter has known and taught with Holl for over 30 years and
provides an authoritative and personal examination of Holl and his
work. A must-own book for architects as well as for students of the
discipline. Richly illustrated with hundreds of colour photographs
and Holl's own watercolours.
