Описание: The Midwest finally gets its due through essays penned by architects and critics, who shine a much-deserved spotlight on the region's architecture, from its celebrated landmarks to its lesser-known projects.
Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright may be the Midwest's (and the nation's) most famous architects, but the region has always been a fertile ground for builders master and amateur. Midwest Architecture Journeys takes readers on a trip to visit some of the region's most inventive buildings by architects such as Bertrand Goldberg Bruce Goff David Haid Earl Young Lillian Leenhouts. It also includes stops at less obvious but equally daring and defining sites, such as Cahokia mounds, Buffalo grain silos, Flint parking lots, Dayton flea markets Fermilab New Glarus restaurants Minneapolis underground buildings Bronzeville churchesPruitt Igoe public housing Cleveland abandoned warehouses.
This copiously illustrated perfect coffee table book, with its dozens of gorgeous photographs, proves that what might seem flat is actually monumental, and what we assume to be boring is brimming with experimentation. Perfect for your next road trip. |
