AV Monograph 131



To help revive a potential fallen admiration, I have posted a highly recommended book that revives the spirit and faith of David Chipperfield. I just purchased this monograph and am very pleased with both the beautiful layout and work.

Twenty-five years later it is evident that the initial traits which defined Chipperfield's approach sensual handling of materials, lively orchestration of uses, and a laconic elegance of language are as apparent as ever. Introduced by essays from Deyan Sudjic, Enrique Sobejano and Manuel Gallego, this survey features an examination of 25 works by the architect.
