Neutra. Complete Works (Multilingual Edition) Hardcover – September 22, 2010

Best book on Neutra available. Very comprehensive in scope and contains many wonderful color photos.

It was Perfect

With incredible photographs, including those of the maestro Julius Shulman, and also with rich architectural drawings this is a wonderful book. The graphics are rich with subdued colors and clearly delineated plans illustrated in black ink. It is a large book and some criticize this because it is multilingual in it's text. I did not find this relevant to the experience of holding a chronicle of the complete works of this brilliant and important architect. It is a book to be treated with reverence while browsing its rich pages so its size and weight are a minor inconvenience.

A very complete review of his work

If you like your books big and heavy, then this book will please you. It is definitely the biggest I've ever bought and putting it on a bookshelf is impossible. But what can you say about its contents. Thorough and complete. To have all of ones work in one book is ambitious, but when done properly, the result is a book which makes all others on the topic redundant. All of Neutra's projects are covered in this book in chronological order. From this you gain a greater perspective of his work, rather than the usual texts which show a few of his greatest hits and always leave you wanting more. One thing you gain from this book is how over a period of 40 or so years Neutra's basic design changed very little, yet was still appropriate to its time and setting. This book is a must have. Just watch your back, it is heavy!!

Great book....the typing a bit small and the book a bit heavy, but great with blueprints labeled and original small photographs.

I love Nuetra's work, especially since I am a fan of Mid-century arechitecture and furniture design. So when I found this book and at the price that it was, I had to add it to my collection. I actually read every book that goes into my library and I have to say this book is overwhelming. It is one of the most comprehensive literatures of an architects work and life that I have ever seen and I guarrantee anyone who loves Nuetra, architecture, and the mid-century will be pleased.
