Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. As a result of the Great Fire of 1871, Chicago became a major creative centre of American architecture. Talented architects flocked to the city in the fire's aftermath, and made use of new technology, such as the fireproof steel frame and the safety elevator to create what is considered to be the world's first skyscraper, and ultimately change the look of 20th-century cities. These innovations - which required the planning of structures from the inside out - can be seen in this book. This volume chronicles the work of architects Louis H. Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, as well as that of H.H. Richardson, John Welborn Root, William LeBaron Jenny and their successors. More than 70 important buildings are pictured - most with one exterior image and several views of the interior - spanning Richardson's 1887 Glessner House through The Rookery, Robie House, the Carson Pirie Scott & Company store, 860-880 North Lake Shore Drive and the current work of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, Kohn Pedersen Fox and Cesar Pelli, among others. Biographical information about the leading architects is integrated with the architectural discussion. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. For over a century, Chicago has been evolving as a major creative center of American architecture. Its buildings are admired the world over for their inspired and original designs, which have made the city a mecca for architecture enthusiasts. This book is the first examination of Chicago's finest buildings from the viewpoint of their interior architecture. With an array of superb illustrations, many from the archives of Hedrich-Blessing, one of America's premier architectural photography firms, this lively book chronicles the development of Chicago's architecture and brings to life the events that surround it, beginning with the Great Fire of 1871 that reduced the city to ashes. Presented with a clean slate in the fire's aftermath, architects flocked to the raw and booming city, bringing fresh ideas and vitality - and the new technology that made skyscrapers possible, such as the fireproof steel frame and the safety elevator. H. H. Richardson, Louis Sullivan, John Wellborn Root, William LeBaron Jenney, Frank Lloyd Wright, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and their successors utilized these innovations and greatly influenced the look of modern American cities. Their legacy continues to inspire admiration, as can be seen in the 243 photographs, 108 in full color, that reveal the interiors - along with an exterior view - of more than 70 important buildings, from Richardson's 1887 Glessner House through the current work of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, Kohn Pedersen Fox, Cesar Pelli, and others. Biographical information about the leading architects is integrated with the architectural discussion. Impassioned debates about the merits of a building, new or old, are as much a part of Chicago'sarchitectural tradition as the buildings themselves. This book includes discussions of the famous Tribune Tower competition as well as of the Harold Washington Library Center and Helmut John's State of Illinois Building. Are we to believe Mies van der Rohe's aphorism that 'less is more' or Robert Venturi's retort that 'less is a bore'? Whatever the answer, all agree that Chicago has a unique place in the annals of American architecture. Dj, heavy. 256 pages.…
