Rooms You May Have Missed

"Rooms You May Have MIssed presents two unexpected stories of architectural attitudes that start unfolding from the interior. On one side, Umberto Riva offers a radical rethinking of the elements associated with everyday inhabitation and a continual questioning of "modern" precepts ; on the other, Bijoy Jain proposes an alternative means of production for contemporary architecture and role for the architect in the economy of building. Together, they point to other paths--modest and particular, but also ambitious and resonant--toward conceiving and making architecture today"--Back cover.
