Steven Holl: Seven Houses will be launched with two events in the New York-area in November
November 10: Presentation and Book Signing, Oblong Books, Rhinebeck, NY
November 13: Presentation and Conversation with Wendy Goodman, Rizzoli Bookstore, New York, NY
New York, NY — November 5: Steven Holl Architects is pleased to present Steven Holl: Seven Houses, with contributions by Philip Jodidio and published by Rizzoli. Through new texts, watercolors, and more than 100 photographs, the book offers a close look at seven residences designed by Steven Holl Architects. In addition, the book includes Holl’s essay “Luminist Architecture,” which explores the importance of light, natural landscapes, and spatial energy.
This volume features seven of Steven Holl Architects’ residential works, including two new homes finished in 2017. Despite their varying locations and scales, the houses are connected in their use of natural light, material, and detail. Viewed as a collection, the projects exemplify the luminist qualities of Holl’s work, inspired by the light of New York’s Hudson Valley.
Steven Holl: Seven Houses serves as a companion to his previous Rizzoli book, Steven Holl: Architecture Spoken, published in 2007.
