Author: Brian M. Ambroziak

Year: 2005
Amazon Price: $29.95
ArchitectureWeek— A compilation of pencil sketches, ink washes, and photographs created in 1960 by young Michael Graves when he received the prestigious Prix de Rome and traveled through Italy, Greece, Turkey, Spain, England, Germany, and France, studying and recording masterworks, both ancient and modern. The artwork shows his deep connection to classical buildings and sheds light on his early devotion to modernism.

Author: Sheila O'Donnell and John Tuomey
Publisher: Princeton Architectural Press
Year: 2006
Amazon Price: $27.83
ArchitectureWeek— Dublin, Ireland-based architects O'Donnell + Tuomey have brought a wealth of exciting buildings to the Emerald Isle for the past 17 years. Their striking modernist works show their appreciation for Ireland's rich cultural, historic, and civic identity without falling into stereotypes of pitched roofs, gables, slate, and brick. This monograph on the firm presents 15 of their institutional and residential projects through color photography, plans, and drawings.
