ArchitectureWeek Description
This book chronicles the planning and construction process of the Frank Gehry-designed Ray and Maria Stata Center at MIT. Joyce details how the clients' needs and the architect's vision work in tandem - from the choice of building materials to the construction methods. Richard Sobol's photographs reveal the work in progress, with close attention to architectural form and detail. With over 300 color photographs, architectural drawings, designs, and graphs - Building Stata successfully documents the making of the Stata Center from conception to reality. With opening commentary by Frank O. Gehry - Building Stata presents a close-up look at the evolution of this major building by a master architect.
