Basic Architecture – Schindler – English

This collection presents Austrian-born Rudolph Michael Schindler’s architectural projects. Schindler combined Cubism, the International Style and Californian Modernism into his unique style referred to as "space architecture." His signature style combined space with geometrical shapes, bold lines and materials such as wood and concrete. Although his bold style earned him little recognition in his lifetime, today his innovative designs are hailed as icons of the Modernist movement. Featuring crisp photographs, detailed floor plans and a map locating the landmarks, this book is a comprehensive visual summary of Schindler’s most renowned projects, from private homes to commercial buildings. 96 pages. Dimensions: 21.6 x 1.3 x 26.7 cm (8.5 x 0.5 x 10.5 inches). Language: English.
