Description

This title showcases 21 houses in a lavish format that truly represents the seminal work of a modern master. Niemeyer is known for his large scale civic designs, but this book focusses on his residential architecture with many houses unpublished before. Weintraub had unlimited access and support from Neimeyer, making this the ultimate guide to his houses. Oscar Niemeyer is one of the greatest architects of our time. Hugely influential, his work has added a new dimension to Modern architecture in the twentieth century. This book showcases twenty-one stunning Niemeyer-designed houses, which taken as a group serve to demonstrate the wide range of Niemeyer's prodigious genius as never before seen.
