Description
This masterfully designed and printed monograph on Salvatore LaRosa's design work is marked by sensitivity to environment and a love of metaphor. After completing two volumes that depict, in very clear terms, his utilization of techniques, LaRosa felt the need to go inside many of his designs and give the reader insight into how each came about. In his third volume, LaRosa brings the viewer into his world and gives simple explanations of what gives each piece its meaning. Personal reflections describe LaRosa s process and describe his fascination with resonance through design. AUTHOR: Salvatore LaRosa is a founding partner of B Five Studio. In addition to his work as an architect and designer, he was Treasurer of The Architectural League of New York and taught at Parsons School of Design. He has received numerous awards for his art, including three recently from AIA s Faith and Form Religious Art & Architecture Awards. ILLUSTRATIONS: 151 photographs and 15 illustrations
