Michael Graves

For nearly forty years, Michael Graves has produced architecture with a blend of classical rigor and abstract whimsy that has consistently garnered international recognition. This, the fourth chronological volume of Michael Graves' buildings and projects documents the latest period in a career of award-winning design. With more than 100 projects illustrated by over 300 color photographs and architectural drawings by Michael Graves & Associates, this volume demonstrates Graves' enduring status as a leading American architect. Michael Graves recombines traditional architectural elements to expand and transform the language of architecture. Valuing character over style, Graves' designs maintain a sense of experimentation while respecting scale, culture and history. Michael Graves considers himself a "general practitioner" rather than a specialist in any one building type or discipline. He has widely influenced architecture, interior design and industrial design, as well as the classroom through his nearly 40-year career at Princeton University. He and his associates design not only the architecture but also the interiors and furnishings of their projects. Graves' extensive line of products for Target has made highquality design both affordable and readily available. The contemporary, contextual designs of Michael Graves can be found worldwide, from multi-use urban developments, corporate headquarters and hotels to libraries, museums, academic buildings and private residences. Projects in this volume range from the Washington Monument Restoration, which transformed the restoration project into public art, to the United States Embassy Compound in Seoul, Korea; and from the LIFE Magazine Dream House, which provided a well designed and flexible prototype for the average house, to the Miramar Resort Hotel and El Gouna Golf Hotel and Club in El Gouna, Egypt.
