Summary:

"The light- and breeze-filled modern houses in Florida of the 1950s and the hard-lined silhouette of Yale's Art and Architecture Building (built in 1962 and perhaps his best known work) are the two images that come to mind when one thinks of Paul Rudolph." "Author Roberto de Alba considers these projects in the context of Rudolph's early success and explores the buildings he designed from 1969 to 1996. The book includes an astonishing variety of projects, many built, including houses, towers, bungalows, chapels, corporate offices, and urban plans of a monumental scale. All show the complicated interplay of space, light, and mass that are the trademarks of Rudolph's genius. Through de Alba's close contact with the architect before his death, Rudolph's own personal vision is conveyed in descriptive texts and accompanying images."--Jacket.
