Couverture rigide. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 2008. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Reliure éditeur cartonnée sous jaquette illustrée . Format in-4°( 30,5 x 23 cm )( 1770 gr ). ------ 287 pages . **************************** Présentation éditeur : "" En 1985, déçu par les tendances dominantes de l'architecture moderne, Lucien Lagrange quitta Skidmore Owings & Merrill et s'engagea dans une série d'enquêtes historiques dans le but de trouver de nouvelles sources d'inspiration architecturale. Depuis, il a conçu certaines des hôtels, bureaux et immeubles de copropriété les plus impressionnants de Chicago, ville connue pour son statut de modèle architectural. L' uvre de Lagrange résiste à toute catégorisation simpliste, combinant à la fois modernité et tradition, souvent de manière insolite. Sa variété est extraordinaire. Lagrange est, en Amérique, l'un des rares architectes dont l'inspiration embrasse aussi bien le travail de la pierre du 19e siècle que l'acier et le verre du 21e siècle.

Une sensation de beauté, à la fois intemporelle et à l'élégance suprême, émane du c ur même de l' uvre de Lagrange. "" ************************ ref.…
