Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. This book follows Henry Klumbs life in architecture from Cologne, Germany to Puerto Rico. Arriving on the island, Klumb was a one-time German immigrant, a moderately successful designer, and previously a senior draftsman with Frank Lloyd Wright.Over the next forty years Klumb would emerge as Puerto Ricos most prolific, locally well-known, and celebrated modern architect. In addition to becoming a leading figure in Latin American modern architecture, Klumb also became one of Frank Lloyd Wrights most accomplished proteges, and an architect with a highly attuned social and environmental consciousness. Cruz explores his life, works, and legacy through the lens of a sense of place, defined as the beliefs that people adopt, actions undertaken, and feelings developed towards specific locations and spaces. He argues that the architects sense of place was a defining quality of his life and work, most evident in the houses he designed and built in Puerto Rico.Puerto Ricos Henry Klumb offers a historical narrative, culminating in a series of architectural analyses focusing on four key design strategies employed in Klumbs work: vernacular architecture, the grid and the landscape, dense urban spaces, and open air rooms. This book is aimed at researchers, academics, and postgraduate students interested in Latin American architecture, modernism, and architectural history. This book offers a historical narrative, culminating in a series of architectural analyses focusing on four key design strategies employed in Klumbs work: vernacular architecture, the grid and the landscape, dense urban spaces and open-air rooms.
