(X-Posted) Online description: Robert A. M. Stern is dedicated to the synthesis of tradition and innovation. In more than thirty-five years of practice, he has produced a wide range of building types with a variety of stylistic influences, all inspired by the great legacy of American architecture. His firm, Robert A. M. Stern Architects, was first recognized for its distinguished houses, and residential design remains the cornerstone of the practice. This beautifully illustrated monograph―a companion to the best-selling Robert A. M. Stern: Houses―presents twenty-six of the firm's most memorable houses. Located in diverse settings across North America―from a valley in Colorado with sweeping views of the Aspen mountains to a bluff overlooking Long Island Sound to an island off the coast of British Columbia―these remarkable houses reveal the architect's emphasis on the importance of context and his dedication to exploring the nature of space. Each house invokes the vernacular architectural heritage particular to its region while gracefully reflecting its unique natural surroundings. Whether they are Shingle Style "cottages" by the sea, colonial Georgian country estates, or elegant Regency designs, Stern's houses are unique both for their timelessness and their ability to evoke a conversation with the past―a dialogue he believes lies at the heart of architecture. New York, New York: The Monacelli Press, 2005. Hardcover. Green boards, light green dust jacket; 632 pp., many color illus., plans, drawings. 8lbs. �ISBN: 9781580931663
