1.0 out of 5 stars A major disappointment..., February 16, 2001
By 
This review is from: SOM Evolutions: Recent Work of Skidmore, Owings & Merill (Hardcover)
I work in the Chicago office of SOM, and I gotta say that this book is a major disappointment. Key projects (past and present) have been left out, there are virtually no interiors projects shown (a nearly criminal act; since SOM defined the practice of interior architecture), and the photos are positively horrible.

Grainy, out of focus, and poorly framed - the photos are the worst part about the book. You won't believe just how bad they are until you see them.

I would strongly recommend the new book "Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP - Architecture and Urbanism 1995-2000" published by Images Publishing. I have every single book every published on SOM's work, and this is the most stunning. It's brand new though, and might not yet be widely available.

2.0 out of 5 stars Do Not Waste Your Time or Money, August 1, 2001
By 
This review is from: SOM Evolutions: Recent Work of Skidmore, Owings & Merill (Hardcover)
This book is very poorly produced. It looks like it was all run off a copy machine. The reproductions of the photographs are very poor and difficult to make out. Not clear at all. This is just a poorly constructed book from a quality stand-point all around. Not what I expected.
