{"product_id":"situated-objects-stan-allen-9783038602040","title":"Situated Objects: Buildings and Projects by Stan Allen, Photographs by Scott Benedict","description":"Stan Allen is an architect and educator who has won global acclaim, primarily for his work in town planning and his influential 1996 essay \"Field Conditions.\" His new book \u003ci\u003eSituated Objects\u003c\/i\u003e shows a unique facet of his creative process: a selection of small buildings and projects on rural sites, most of them situated within the landscape of the Hudson Valley, New York. They demonstrate an approach to architecture that engages in a dialogue with this partly wild and wholly non-urban environment that lies just outside the gates of New York City. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The projects are presented in drawings and a rich array of images by celebrated photographer Scott Benedict. They are arranged in three thematic categories: Outbuildings, Material Histories, and New Natures, supplemented by the architect's writings and essays contributed by Helen Thomas and Jes s Vassallo. The first book on Stan Allen's buildings, \u003ci\u003eSituated Objects \u003c\/i\u003ehighlights Allen's personal engagement with American material traditions, the conventions of architectural drawing, and the challenge of building with nature. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stan Allen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3038602043\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783038602040\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Park Publishing (WI)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 8.10w x 1.10d","brand":"Stan Allen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43989106786559,"sku":"9783038602040","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_91167c85-a6e1-4538-a213-f75d0595ef2f.jpg?v=1683297707","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/situated-objects-stan-allen-9783038602040","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
