Over the course of a career spanning nearly fifty years, in collaboration with his partner Tom Kundig, Olson has established a reputation for thoughtfully considered buildings, evident in projects that suit and enhance their locations in Mexico, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Northwest.This up-to-date survey of Olsons work, focusing chiefly on his buildings for art-collecting private clients and large-scale resorts, offers a stunning lookby way of plans, sketches, and photographsat the career of a great American architect.
The accompanying text includes an introduction by architecture critic Aaron Betsky as well as Olsons own reflections on the medium.
