Description: This richly revealing new monograph celebrates the range and humanistic vision of internationally acclaimed architect Mario Botta’s achievement. In a sensitive reading of the architect’s work as one of the few practitioners of the moment who is able, through the built form, to explain our contemporary world to us. By using the vernacular, often romantic elements of his particular site, whether of his native Switzerland, or more recently of Spain, France, and Germany, with modern formal ideals, Botta creates an architecture that is instantly recognizable as of its place and of its time. Stunning color photographs and the architect’s own plans and drawings document his career from 1961 to his most recent projects. His private homes and his public buildings alike leap off the page as belonging fully to their place.450 illustrations. 60 in color.
