2 Johnson, Philip Philip Johnson/Alan Ritchie Architects
Monacelli 2003 1580930840 / 9781580930840 Hardcover New 
New. Pasadena's premier independent new and used bookstore. Architecture; 1 x 11.3 x 10.3 Inches; 192 pages; Philip Johnson is one of the outstanding figures in American architecture. He has both established and followed trends throughout his 70-year career. This volume contains work, both built and unbuilt, both large-scale and small, designed in the 1990s by the firm of Philip Johnson/Alan Ritchie Architects. Alan Ritchie has worked with Johnson since 1969; the firm was established in 1994.

The projects shown may be divided into two groups. Johnson's interest in the past decade in sculptural form (or the way in which sculptural form translates into architectural presence) has led to designs that involve both new kinds of shapes and new ways of using classic architectural form to make entirely new works of architecture. Such sculptural works, for the most part small in scale, include Da Monsta, the new visitors pavilion at Johnson's famed Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut, and a spectacular folly consisting of four pyramids made of chain-link fencing at an estate in New York State.

Simultaneously, the firm has continued its ongoing work with larger projects, such as a 27-story apartment tower for Tribeca, in lower Manhattan; the Cathedral of Hope in Dallas; an addition to the Amon Carter Museum, originally designed by Johnson in 1961, in Fort Worth, Texas; and a proposal for the architecture school at Texas A&M University in College Station. Also included are a pair of proposals for La DÈfense in Paris; three large houses; a new china design for the Four Seasons restaurant in New York; and a public clock, sponsored by Movado, for Lincoln Center. 
Price: 15.50 USD
