Steven Holl: Seven Houses

"Holl has masterfully advanced that luminist vision architecturally through large-scale civic projects marked by lyrical sweeps of seemingly sculpted light. This invaluable and impeccably designed monograph concentrates, instead, on his homes, similarly enlightened. The Ex of In House ingenuously creates a 918-square-foot house, geothermally and solar-powered, with no bedroom, yet with inviting space to sleep five. A poetic understanding of site as a home s foundation informs Holl s masterful alchemy of wood and glass.

"Sub-subtitled "Luminist Architecture," this handsome, slipcased book documents seven Steven Holl houses completed over the last twenty years, some of them on the architect's own property north of New York City." Archidose 

"But his residential work, also steeped in structural energy-saving methods, is really a testament to his love of nature and his creativity in mining the gifts of natural light, as illustrated by the seven houses he features in his new book, Steven Holl: Seven Houses, from Rizzoli New York."
