Sinopsis
Contemporary architect Ralph Johnson is one of the most prolific and awarded American architects practicing today. As Firmwide Design Director at global architecture firm Perkins&Will, which he joined in 1976, Johnson’s work has shaped communities and spanned continents―from Africa’s tallest tower to Shanghai’s landmark natural history museum. In 2015, Johnson was inducted into the National Academy of Design, and in 2022, AIA Chicago honoured him with a Lifetime Achievement Award, recognising his lasting impact on architecture and the built environment. Architecture in a Rapidly Changing World is a comprehensive two-volume monograph celebrating Johnson’s long-spanning career and his impressive portfolio of work, both built and unbuilt, since 1971. Taken together, the volumes explore how individual expression emerges within the context of a larger architectural practice. Volume 1: Creative Journey encapsulates his career from architecture school to the present. Volume 2: Recent Work explores his latest projects in more depth. While Johnson’s approach has evolved over six decades of practice, his adherence to the core values of humanism, environmentalism, and modernism has never wavered.

Ralph Johnson's work spans a magnificent range of award-winning projects-in terms of both location and program types, with each project being distinct yet consistent in an underlying process and design intent. From a residential high-rise in Chicago, to a university in Africa, to a museum in a park in Asia, Johnson's work is environmentally responsible and uniquely suited to the particular needs of the client, climate, and site. The beautifully presented works in this stunning monograph include both built

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Architecture in a Rapidly Changing World provides a comprehensive insight into the works of global design and innovation by the prolific architect Ralph Johnson from Perkins+Will. Architect Ralph Johnson's work spans a magnificent range of award-winning projects in terms of both location and program types. Architecture in a Rapidly Changing World is a comprehensive two-volume monograph showcasing Johnson's work-both built and unbuilt-from throughout his career, beginning at architecture school and culminating with his role as Principal and Global Design Director at Perkins&Will. Volume 1 Creative Journey opens with an introductory essay by Ned Cramer, and features Johnson's highly detailed sketches and drawings from a selection of his projects from 1971 through 2012. Volume 2 Recent Work presents 15 of Johnson's projects with Perkins&Will from 2012 to 2024. An interview between Cramer and Johnson explores the architect's design philosophy, and an essay by Thomas Fisher delves deeper into Johnson's work. These recent projects are illustrated with photography, site plans, and drawings, and accompanied by insightful narratives. Varying in typology and location, the projects include Shanghai Nature Museum, U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters, Northtown Library and Housing, and CTA Damen Green Line Station, among others. The significance of these projects is underpinned by Johnson's deep-held respect for humanistic values, and his emphasis on process, rather than preconceived product, which allows him to respond to diverse cultures and urban conditions. This distinguished monograph is a comprehensive account of Johnson's enduring career and his impressive folio of work. It sits comfortably in the heady realm of Images' highly regarded 21st Century Masters series, which celebrates international juggernauts in the fields of architecture and design.
