Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. 128 pp. with extensive B/W and full-colour illustrations. Shallow 1/4" crease at lower back corner of cover. "Architectural competitions have been called risky; their results unpredictable. Despite or perhaps because of such perceptions, Kitchener - a community of 160,000 people - opened its doors to every architect in Canada to submit designs for its new City Hall. Where many competitions have floudered, Kitchener succeeded. The process has been widely commended and the results mark a new turning point for Canadian design. They reveal a younger generation of architects challenging the easy codifications of Post-Modernism through a rethinking and reworking of Modernism's diverse modes of expression. COMPETING VISIONS commemorates this important architectural event with full presentations of the prize winning projects. Critic Larry Richards analyses the results and comes to terms with this shift in design tendencies. Essays by George Baird, Tom McKay, Detlef Mertins, Douglas Shadbolt and Brigitte Shim put the issues surrounding architectural competitions into sharper focus.".…

Paperback. Condición: New. Five North American Architects - An Anthology brings together five architectural practices which, while all distinct, share a particularly sensitive feeling for the impact of craftsmanship and climate on the generation of form, as well as an equally shared concern for the expressive tactility of material and the articulation of structure under the impact of light. The book is an in depth survey of recent work by Steven Holl (New York), Rick Joy (Tucson), John and Patricia Patkau (Vancouver), Stanley Saitowitz (San Francisco), and Brigitte Shim and Howard Sutcliffe (Toronto). The regional specificity of the work is considered against a larger North American context, allowing one to assess the practice of architecture across the continent today.…
