Buildings is the first of two books on the work of architect Robert A. M. Stern. This edition focuses on commercial projects such as office buildings, hotels, and institutional buildings, while the second will feature houses. Pentagram’s design is meant to reflect Stern’s own architectural approach: the contemporary interpretation of classical forms in a confident, even monumental form.
