Introduction by Joan Ockman. Includes bibliography, list of worldwide awards, and an index. "As one of the largest and most prestigious architectural firms in the world, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) has for half a century set the standard of American corporate design practice. In the decades after World War II, SOM's name was synonymous with some of the most illustrious examples of International Style architecture. In more recent years, as modernist orthodoxy has been revised, the firm has continued to occupy the forefront of a field that has become both more aesthetically diverse and more geographically fluid, presiding over a transition from International Style to global practice. SOM's projects today range the globe from Manhattan to Moscow, Chicago to Shanghai, London, and Berlin to Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, and Ho Chi Minh City. From high-tech structures to finely detailed interiors, from superscale office towers to urban place-making, SOM's work traverses an extremely wide range of architectural practices, demonstrating the firm's commitment to the broadest possible provision of design services. While those aspects of its work that most reflect the new impact of globalization and post-industrialism have been emphasized here, the second section of this catalogue illustrates SOM's distinguished handling of museums, religious edifices, courthouses, transitional housing, and other institutional building types. These further reveal its success in providing exceptional levels of public amenities. A building by SOM today is above all a product of a precise "fit" between client, architect, and context. The decision as to whether it is made of granite and marble or glass and steel is an outcome of this relationship, not a matter of ideology. Diversity derives from conscious empiricism rather than willful eclecticism. In this sense, while SOM's variegated recent work departs from post-World War II orthodoxy, it redefines modern architecture's tradition of 'problem-solving.' What continues to distinguish a SOM building is its masterly ability to translate contemporary conditions of practice into an exacting and sophisticated art of building." ? from book?s introduction Very Good / Fine.
