Peter Zumthor Atmospheres - Architectural Environments Surrounding Objects

In order to design a building with a sensuous connection to life, one must think in a way that goes far beyond form and construction. This book, whose first edition has been out of print for years, has been expanded to include the three new essays: "Does Beauty Have a Form?." "The Magic of the Real," and "Light in the Landscape." Not only has the book received a new typography by Hannele Grönlund; it has also been freshly illustrated throughout with new color photographs of Zumthor’s new home and studio in Haldenstein, taken specially for this edition by Laura Padgett herself.
