Riassunto

A new edition of a five-volume survey of the work of Peter Zumthor until 2013.

Peter Zumthor, 2009 Pritzker laureate, is one of the best-known and most acclaimed architects of the present day. Widely admired for his precision and thoroughness, he creates buildings that are responsive to their location and function, and that are remarkable both for their materials and the atmospheric quality of the spaces they enclose.

This five-volume survey of his work until 2013 features forty-three buildings and projects, including some that have never been published before elsewhere. Over 856 pages with more than 750 photographs, plans, sketches, drawings, and watercolors, and with texts written by Zumthor himself specifically for this monograph, this new edition documents a wide range of projects from several world-famous buildings to some that never left the drawing board.

The first edition won the 2014 Filaf d'argent (Festival International du Livre d'Art & du Film) and the 2014 DAM Architectural Book Award.
