Sinossi

"It's all in the detail" goes the old saying, but in architecture this aspect of a design is often relegated to the backroom. Dickinson brings detail to the forefront by surveying the work of 28 contemporary architects and presenting their detailing work in both large and small scale projects. Featuring 150 line drawings, 200 photographs, and working drawings, the volume is the last word on walls, ceilings, roofs, doors, windows, kitchens, bathroom, trim, millwork, mantelpieces, and light fixtures. However, don't expect gingerbread trim and picket fences. The examples range from the weird to the elegant, but are uniformly high style. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
