Morphosis: édition en langue anglaise - Hardcover

'This hefty volume offers full-page photographs for the most part. Smaller images and beautiful lucid drawings are pictured against fields of white or, more often, black. No fuss, no frills, no text. Explanatory remarks at the back of the book are in the form of an essay by Thom Mayne, who has single-handedly headed the office since the departure of Michael Rotondi in 1992. The title of the essay is 'Not Neutral', and finding a better description of these designs would be impossible.' (Bonnie van Breukelen, FRAME, The Netherlands (published in English)) 'This latest book, exquisitely produced by Phaidon...What can a book offer that can possibly compare with seeing the buildings for real? Here, despite the photographic glitz and artifice, is a provocative attempt to bring the buildings to life for those of us who can't be there.' (Elain Harwood, Architects' Journal) 'It's the first-ever complete collected Morphosis, a firm that has its roots in the industrial vernacular.' (Metropolitan Home) 'This handsome pictorial survey of [Morphosis's] 35 completed buildings and installations offer a thrilling ride through structures that tilt, fold, cantilever, and seem to defy gravity.' (LA Architect) 'The monumental work of Thom Mayne has long been overdue for a big coffee-table book, and Phaidon is happy to deliver.' (Dwell)
