Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Habitat was one of the most intriguing buildings in the world when it opened as the housing exhibit of Expo 67 in Montreal. Seven million visited it; heads of state lived in it; models flew half way around the world to pose in front of it; children played hide-and-see…k all over it; and critics heralded it as the breakthrough of twentieth century architecture. As intriguing as the building is the story of how it came to exist. Here, in Beyond Habitat, its young architect Moshe Safdie describes -- with a frankness that permits a rare view behind the scenes of modern architecture and mass housing -- how his ideas developed and how he fought them into realization. 244 pages, ill. ; 23 cm. First edition, first printing. Cream cloth boards, unclipped dust jacket. Torn dust jacket repaired with tape, shelf wear to edges, no inscriptions, tight and square binding. Photographs available on request. All books dispatched same or next working day in robust packaging. Well-illustrated (illustrator).
