This review of Mario Botta's work point out the central features of his style: crisp, geometric, elemental forms; the play of natural light and space; and the visual and haptic quality of brick and natural stone.
This expanded edition includes Botta's new design sketches.
Mario Botta est un des architectes les plus originaux de la génération moyenne. Chacune des ses œuvres jouit d'une considération internationale. Ses constructions uniques sont des figures visuelles, animées d'un pouvoir magique. La gamme de ses créations renferme la Mediathèque à Villeurbanne, la Banca del Gottardo à Lugano, la Galerie d'art à Tokyo, le Musée d'Art Contemporain à San Francisco.
