dig it! Building Bound to the Ground

A great and fine book, this one, 1400 pages thick, with full color from Baan photos, a world examination of building and its relation to the ground. Architecture as geology, as topography, as mimic, as spiral, as integral. The examples range wonderfully from the Frey House just in the hills above Palm Springs, in blatant color, to libraries in South Africa, hotels in Amsterdam, housing in New Zealand, Museum in Lyon. All in the study of the ground upon which it is all built.
