Description
Henry N. Cobb: Words & Works 1948-2018 is the first comprehensive collection of the renowned American architect's life and work. With over half a century of experience, Henry N. Cobb has been a leading voice in architecture, shaping iconic buildings that continue to inspire and influence generations. From educational institutions like the Portland Museum of Art in Maine and the Anderson School of Management at UCLA, to corporate projects such as the John Hancock Tower in Boston and Four Seasons Hotel and Residences at One Dalton, Cobb's designs have consistently demonstrated a sensitivity to place and use. This book brings together poetic analyses of his most notable works, alongside essays and lectures that explore the past, present, and future of architecture. Featuring contributions from prominent architects and designers, including Michael Graves, Robert A.M. Stern, and Peter Eisenman, this beautifully designed volume is a thoughtful and engaging exploration of Cobb's extensive subject matter.
