商品簡介
This handsome, oversized volume (10.25x8.25") profiles one of Florida's most celebrated modernist architects. Filled with historic photos, ground plans, drawings, and current photos for those buildings still extant, each entry describes the conception of the project, the patron or company responsible, the building's design, the estimate, budget, and process of building. Rich with details drawn from archival documents, useful analysis of the buildings' materials and unique features, and presenting a thoughtful selection of Parker's enormous oeuvre--69 of his over 500 structures are featured--this is a terrific addition to the scholarship of modern American architecture. Includes a chronological list of built works and a full bibliography. Henning, who has published on Frank Lloyd Wright, is an architect in North Carolina.
