Helfand, Margaret
MARGARET HELFAND ARCHITECTS: Essential Architecture
NY: Monacelli Press, 1999

Quarto. 192 pp, illustrated with color photographs. Paperback. Near Fine. In a collection of projects developed during the 1990s, Margaret Helfand Architects argues for an architecture of logic, simplicity, and sensuality. Presented chronologically, nineteen projects ranging from showrooms, residences, academic buildings, parks, and functional objects are examined in photographs and texts along the three axes fundamental to the firm's work: geometry, structure, and materials. Basic materials such as steel, wood, glass, and stone are used with a minimum of transformation.
