Аннотация:

Lucien Lagrange: The Search for Elegance is the story of one architect's mid-course adjustment, a journey of discovery from Modern to Classical and back again, from disillusionment to renewed inspiration. At the heart of the book are Lucien Lagrange's projects, stunningly captured by William Zbaren and elucidated by Robert Sharoff in detailed captions and a critical essay that provides background and context. Finally, there is a wide-ranging conversation with Lagrange where he discusses his early years at Skidmore Owings & Merrill and his subsequent career as one of Chicago's most prominent architects. Lucien Lagrange: The Search for Elegance will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of architecture and design in the Post-Modern era as well as the evolution of one of America's most important cities. It will be of particular interest to those interested in the role history and context play in contemporary architecture and the opportunities they provide for innovative design.
