Synopsis

This publication, the first edition of which sold out a few months following publication in 1998, is the first comprehensive overview of Peter Zumthor's buildings and projects from the years 1979 to 1997. It illustrates 8 buildings and 12 projects in photographic essays by Hélène Binet. The descriptive texts are by Peter Zumthor. Both the buildings and projects are extensively documented with drawings. Even after publication of the complete edition in 2014, it has lost nothing of its beauty. The book, which up to now has been traded on the internet at top prices, is now finally available again from booksellers.
"For me, working on a design is a process that originates from homemaking and leads back to homemaking. In my imagination, I test my designs by making my home in them; I try to imagine the feel of the spaces and conjure up the sum total of all spatial experiences we can have and have had, and of experiences we are still able to have in the future and which - in the case of a new home - I dream that we should have." Peter Zumthor
