Compression: (Steven Holl Architects) by Steven Holl (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Compression by Steven Holl Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Steven Holl celebrates the thirtieth anniversary of his landmark book Anchoring with Compression, a collection of thirty-five major projects from the past decade. Holl applies concepts from neuroscience, literature, social science, and philosophy to develop the idea of compression: the condensation of material and social forces to create meaningful and sustainable architecture.A diverse roster of international works includes an expansion of the Museum of Fine Arts Houston ; academic facilities for Columbia University, Princeton University, and the Glasgow School of Art; urban plans; a harbor gateway for Copenhagen; and an extension of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. All demonstrate Holls poetic attention to light, space, and water; a subtle and tactile employment of material and color; and an awareness of architectures potential to connect people through inspiring public spaces.

Considered one of Americas preeminent architects, he has been awarded the Praemium Imperiale (2014), the American Institute of Architects Gold Medal (2012), and the Royal Institute of British Architects Jencks Award (2010).
