Figure/Ground: A Design Conversation
Language: English
Published by Balcony Press March 2004, 2004
ISBN 10: 1890449237 ISBN 13: 9781890449230
Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. 'Figure/Ground: A Design Conversation,' is a collection of six dialogs on design between Scott Johnson and William Fain, the principals of Johnson Fain Partners of Los Angeles. Covering a broad range of topics, the conversations center on such themes as the globalization of architecture, the impact of the Internet, the issue of 'big architecture' vs. urban design, and the role of historicism in design. Along the way, Johnson and Fain find inspiration in jazz improvisation, Noam Chomsky, Roman urbanism, passive solar heating in China, Catholic monasticism, and Native American spirituality. With elegant layout of National Design Award winner Lorraine Wild, the dialogs are illustrated with photographs of recent work by the firm, including their plan for central Beijing and the new Native American Center in Oklahoma City. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
