New York Architecture - Mariana Fajardo

Popis produktu

From a mid-20th-century preoccupation with the skyscraper, architecture in New York City has matured into a truly cosmopolitan expression of reinvention and interaction with the city's residents. This heavily illustrated survey considers dozens of examples, from the Phillipps-Skaife residence by Alden Maddry Architect, flooded with light through its translucent walls and glass floors, to the new headquarters tower of the New York Times, which seems to fade into the sky. Here too are the rough wood interior and plastic bubble facade of Pop Burger, and the book-lined residence of architect Peter Eisenman and his family.
