Description
In this award-winning book noted photographer Balthazar Korab creates a fascinating new game--find the letters of the alphabet in, on and around American buildings ranging from Victorian gingerbread to angular lines of steel. Every letter can be found in architecture either as a basic structural form or as a decorative, eye-catching detail added on as the inspiration of the architect or the whim of the builder. The words of famous architectural observers from Goethe to Wright and from Victor Hugo to Robert Venturi are carefully paired with dramatic photos to produce an exciting array of ideas about what architecture can be.
