Polshek Partnership Architects
Practicing architects and their students will find much to ponder in this presentation of 16 projects by the Polshek Partnership, which devotes itself to creating buildings that realize their clients' needs--rather than the architect's ego--creating aesthetically pleasing spaces that are often culturally specific as well as practical and functional. Each project is presented with many color photos, models and plans, and a text describing the project's inception, goals, design challenges and solutions. Among the projects included the Ed Sullivan Theater, the Queens Borough Public Library, Mashantucket Pequot Museum and Research Center, Santa Fe Opera, and the Brooklyn Museum. The volume is oversize, in a horizontal 12x9". Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
