Beschreibung

<b>An illuminating study of the architecture of one of the 20th century's most important tropical modernists</b>Vladimir Ossipoff (1907-1998), known as the "master of Hawaiian architecture," was at the forefront of the postwar phenomenon known as tropical modernism. Although he practiced at a time of rapid growth and social change in Hawai`i, Ossipoff criticized large-scale development and advocated environmentally sensitive designs, developing a distinctive form of architecture appropriate to the lush topography, microclimates, and vernacular traditions of the Hawaiian islands. <p>This stunning book, now available for the first time in paperback, surveys Ossipoff's buildings, which demonstrate a striking interplay of indoor and outdoor space, as well as a vibrant and glamorous architectural style that has proven delightfully particular to its place and durable over time.</p> <br>&gt;Published in association with the Honolulu Museum of Art <br><p><strong>Exhibition Schedule: </strong></p><p>Honolulu Academy of Arts, Hawaii (November 29, 2007 - January 27, 2008)</p><p>Yale School of Architecture, New Haven (Fall 2008)</p><p>Deutsches Architekturmuseum, Frankfurt (Spring 2009)</p>
