Who Is The Architect

Description

According to editor Yeon Kyeong Choo, this richly illustrated book is intended as an opportunity for both current and prospective architects to ponder and explore everything from fundamental to trivial questions about architecture. What is architecture? What does an architect do? Nineteen ordinary architects and offices from around the world are asked to define who and what an architect is, offering pieces of wisdom, examples of their work, sound advice and personal anecdotes with which readers can build a bigger picture of the discipline. Among the contributing practices are NL Architects, Luca Galofaro, Moussafir Architectes, studio GAON and Katsuhiro Miyamoto & Associates.
