Bohlin Cywinski Jackson: The Nature of Circumstance, book design.
Bohlin Cywinski Jackson: The Nature of Circumstance highlights the work of the award-winning architecture firm Bohlin Cywinski Jackson. The twenty projects featured celebrate a diversity of range and scope in the firm's projects, from a series of wood pavilions on the Finger Lakes of New York to the powerful forms of a private guesthouse and gallery in Honolulu, Hawaii. Also included is the elegant Apple Store Fifth Avenue in New York City, the Liberty Bell Center in Philadelphia, the Ballard Library in Seattle, and the headquarters for Pixar Animation Studios in California. The practice's architecture is alive to the subtleties of place, both man-made and natural, to the varied natures of people, to the sensibilities of individuals, to the character of institutions and to the rich possibilities of materials and the means of construction. A foreword by Pritzker Prize winner Glenn Murcutt and essays by a select group of this country's most accomplished architects and writers accompany this volume.
