Princeton Architectural Press, 2006

Retired Architect/University Educator

Both of the husband/wife team have worked for Wright, Corbu, et al., and have contributed their own "quality" to their ...

Japan Architect, 2000

Will of Dwelling
The book is not only a very fine collection of some beautiful art works, but it's designed to show the architect's will behind the drawing, the strong passion that guides the definition of dwelling spaces.
