Tom Kundig: Works: Works

In <em>Tom Kundig: Works</em>, the celebrated Seattle-based architect presents nineteen new projects, from Hawaii to New York City. Kundig's award-winning houses, known for their rugged yet elegant and welcoming style, are showcased in lush photography with drawings and sketches, and appear alongside his commercial work€"from multistory complexes to the Tacoma Art Museum to a line of hardware (handles, door pulls, hinges, and more). In firsthand accounts, Kundig describes the projects and his design process with many personal anecdotes, making <em>Tom Kundig: Works</em> as much memoir as monograph. The book also includes an introduction by design editor Pilar Viladas and in-depth conversations with Kundig's frequent collaborators€""gizmologist" Phil Turner and contractor Jim Dow (Schuchart/ Dow)€"and clients (Bigwood Residence and Studhorse).
