1.0 out of 5 stars the pragmatics of space, October 1, 2005
This review is from: The Continuous Present of Organic Architecture (Spiral-bound)
I received this catalog from architect Terry Brown, a participant in this traveling exhibition, and found it to be a beautifully bound and extremely well presented publication, covering a number of master designers. Spectacularly photographed and arranged, this is a reprersentation that any artist, architect or novice lover of the organic realm of architecture would be proud to own in their collection. Full of history and insight, I have seen few collected so well. Edward A. Schatz- architectural archivist.
