Building With Nature

4.6/5 ( ratings)

Excerpts from the jacket:

Every step taken in Neutra’s houses brings new experiences, new ways of seeing nature. The photographs reproduced here explore this richness of architectural experience – in the wide spaces of California’s coast and deserts, in Michigan and eastern Pennsylvania, in the Swiss Alps, on small parcels of land in housing developments near Hamburg and Frankfurt in Germany, and in the heart of traffic-laden Los Angeles.

In the accompanying text, Neutra wrote from his long experience in his relationships with clients and about his concern to design houses down to the smallest, finest detail, keeping in mind the wishes and concerns of both the present and possible future owners of the houses. His thoughts and creative ideas make this last book of his a rich resource for architects and house owners of today and tomorrow.
