BEST BOOK of PAULO MENDES DA ROCHA,
By andrelenza "Lenza" (Brazil) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paulo Mendes Da Rocha: Bauten Und Projekte/Works and Projects (German Edition) (Hardcover)
The book of Annete Spiro, is by far, the best book about the Brazilian 2006 Pritzker Prize Winner.
A long range of projects and drawings of the architect.... It's worth every penny. Checkout the 2G special edition on Paulo's recent work, and the Rizzoli (American Edition), but even better the Cosac Naify (Brazilian Edition)on Paulo's complete work, since 1957.
