About this title

Synopsis:

First known for its flamboyant contributions to Miami's skyline, the firm of Arquitectonica and its brilliant young principals, Bernardo Fort-Bressia and Laurinda Spear, have pursued an unconventional modernism that is both abstract and romantic, playful and dramatic. This lovely book covers some 40 projects, with text by Dunlop and a rich visual narrative by Massimo Vignelli. The book's lavish use of color reflects the importance of that element to Arquitectonica's work. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

About the Author:

Beth Dunlop has written extensively on Arquitectonica for the popular and architectural press, and as former architecture critic for the Miami Herald Tribune is well acquainted with the firm's work. She is author of Miami: Trends & Traditions and has contributed essays to the forthcoming monograph on Andr�s Duany and Elizabeth Plater Zyberk.
