Steven Holl Bundle (signed)
Known for his sculptural architecture and his virtuosic use of light ranging, Steven Holl, one of the most outstanding representatives of contemporary American architecture, is at the heart of this group of books ranging from “Color Light Time,” a selection of his works spanning nearly three decades, to “Written in Water” and “Scale,” both devoted to Steven Holl’s legendary watercolors. At a time of rapidly changing technology in the service of architectural design, these watercolors become spectacular examples of a low-tech method. And finally, “Urban Hopes” shows how embracing what could dominate us — the city, infrastructure and overpopulation — has become a part of the process of Steven Holl Architects as the office took on work of increasing complexity and scale in China.
