Structures of Our Time: 31 Buildings That Have Changed American Life (Architectural Record S.) - Tapa dura
Sinopsis
From New York's Rockefeller Center to Philip Johnson's Glass House, from Louis Kahn's Salk Institute to Frank Lloyd Wright's Guggenheim Museum - these are the buildings that have defined American architecture and changed how we think about buildings and space. These 31 great works - all recipients of the AIA's 25-Year Award, granted to only those buildings that have stood the test of time - are not only exemplars of good design but also play significant roles in their communities. What would Fifth Avenue in New York be without Rockefeller Center? Who does not immediately think of the Gateway Arch as emblem of St. Louis? This book examines each of these buildings in depth - how its inhabitants feel about the interior space, how they function as public cultural artifacts, how their designers conceived of their projects and how they see them now, how it takes great clients to produce great architecture. What makes a great building, and why does its signifcance endure? Architecture at its best influences society, culture, and life, and it touches and changes everyone who confronts it. This book shows us how and why. we are considering a CD with supplementary texts and illustrations; this material may go on the website due to time constraints

Acerca del autor
The American Architectural Foundation (Washington, D.C.), headquartered at the Octagon Museum adjacent to American Institute of Architects headquarters, is a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to cultivating the public's understanding of architecture and human experience. It initiates education and outreach efforts to foster public participation in the design process, encourage public stewardship of America's architectural heritage, and promote alliances between architects and the communities in which they practice. Roger Shepherd (New York, NY) is a multifaceted artist and designer whose projects include low-income housing, book design, videos, murals, garden design, and web design. He holds the Henry & Louise Loeb Endowed Chair of Fine Arts at Parsons School of Design, where he teaches in the architecture department and directs the B.F.A. and M.F.A. programs in painting and sculpture. A long-time aficionado of Architectural Record, he writes the monthly "What in the World?" online feature for the magazine's website.
