Seller's Description:
Used-Very Good. A fundamental yet astonishingly diverse element of architecture, the doorway is often the physical focus of a building, and always a vital architectural component. Catherine Slessor has assembled over fifty examples of doorways designed by many of the world's most highly acclaimed architects, exploring the unprecedented variety and inventiveness of recent designs. Included are works by Stephen Holl, St. Ignatius and Gigon Guyer, each illustrated with color photographs and architects' drawings. From the massive revolving glass doors of Philippe Starck's St Martin's Lane Hotel in London, to the dramatic tubular aluminium entry to the Comme des Garcons boutique in New York by Future Systems, the context of each door within its building is examined as well as materials, design, and construction techniques. Contemporary Doorways considers the aesthetics and functions of doorways within their settings: private houses; shops; hotels and museums; interiors; offices; and churches. With over 150 color photographs and a fascinating introductory history of the doorway, this book is an invaluable sourcebook for architects, students, and design enthusiasts alike. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
