Publisher: LArca Edizioni ISBN-10: 8878380431 Author: Thomas Fisher Binding: Paperback Pages: 100 Size: 245x345 mm In the current proliferation of architectonic idioms - the heritage of Modernism - the architectural work of the studio Perkins & Will and of Ralph Johnson is distinguished by its conception of the building as a "kit of parts" - that is, a series of truly architectonic components making a whole that lends itself to interpretation. In the works constructed and designed by this studio in the USA and in many other parts of the world the structural aspects are linked to the formal, creating constructions which are impressive as much for their functionality as for their ability to express, by their very presence, cultural values that go well beyond architecture.
