Glenn Murcutt: Buildings and Projects, 1962-2003 | |
This major monograph on Murcutt spans his entire career, from his early modernist houses to larger commissions. The first section examines his training and architectural influences, while the second identifies recurring themes in his work and analyzes how his buildings attempt to "marry modern architecture to the place, the territory, the landscape," to blend modern typology with traditional Australian models to arrive at an ecological functionalism. The final section focuses on the buildings themselves, and, for this revised edition, all thirteen of his most recent projects have been included. The structures range from Murcutt's courtyard houses in Sydney to freestanding residences set in Australia's barren and isolated landscapes.
At a time when climatic considerations and the lessons of the vernacular play an increasing role in architecture around the world, this definitive monograph reveals an architect whose work is the perfect expression of these ideals. 500 illustrations, 350 in color.
作者简介 Glenn Murcutt has also received the Thomas Jefferson Medal for Architecture, and was recently awarded an International Honorary Fellowship from the Royal Institute of Canadian Architects. Françoise Fromonot is a practicing architect and an editor of the leading French architectural magazine, L'Architecture d'Aujourd'hui.
