Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Frank O. Gehry, born in 1929, founded his own architectural firm in Los Angeles in 1962, and since the building of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, he is undoubtedly among the ranks of international architecture superstars. His buildings are complex constructions, with curves and distortions, skilful plastic shapes which never cease to surprise with their breath-taking spatial effects. To create these daring designs, Gehry makes extensive use of the latest electronic tools, physical models are transformed into digital models using software and hardware which has been adapted from the space industry and medical research. This book provides a colourful insight into Gehry s design methods and the creative process behind his fantastic buildings.

Paperback. Condizione: Fine. 1st. 93 pages, illustrations (some colour), plans; 19 cm. The IT Revolution in Architecture Series. Tight, clean copy. *** On Frank Gehry's deconstructivist architecture; digital techniques. *** "Frank Owen Gehry opened an efficient architecture studio in 1962. But in 1978, almost all at once, he overthrew the canons of his daily professionalism for a new and audacious experimentation. Now, in 2001, his praise has become unanimous: dozens of constructions have followed one after the other on both sides of the Atlantic, some of them acclaimed as works that are symbols of contemporary architecture. This book focuses on Gehry's evolving design process, and how digital tools and processes have been adapted to global/collaborative/singular practice; a fluent practice. Lindsey describes the organization of Gehry's office and its associated teams, and outlines the role of digital tools in an emergent design and construction process where a renewed passion, desire, and collaboration is resulting in 'a new architecture' and the reestablishment of the architect as 'master builder'. These work methods are placing the architect at the center of the construction activity and are changing the way that buildings will be made in the future." - Publisher. Size: 12mo. Collectible.…
