In his new book Urbanisms, architect Steven Holl suggests that urban planners need to realize that the experiential power of cities cannot be completely rationalized and must be studied subjectively. With a selection of urban and architectural projects from his twenty-year practice, Holl stretches urban planning into the domain of uncertainty. Urbanisms presents design solutions for diverse locations including: The School of Art and Art History at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa; Green Urban Laboratory in Nanning, China; Toolenburg Zuid Schiphol, The Netherlands; Fondation Pinault Ile Seguin in Paris, France; and the Master Plan for M.I.T.a (TM)s Vassar Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. A comprehensive exploration of each project illustrates this much-celebrated and influential architecta (TM)s perspective on urban Planning. Steven Holl has been recognized with architecturea (TM)s most prestigious awards and prizes and has lectured and exhibited widely. He is a tenured professor at Columbia Universitya (TM)s Graduate School of Architecture and Planning and has published numerous books, including Anchoring, Intertwining, Parallax, and House.
