The Architecture of Bart Prince: A Pragmatics of Place

Rating:
Summary: Mead's writing/subject is enlightening, learned, enjoyable
Review: A book as interesting as the funky forms it analizes. I have had the honour of both reading this book and attending Professor Mead's architecture retrospective class series. The book is filled with an incledibly informed, and informative text which is supported with excellent photos and diagrams. I highly reccomend this book for students of architecture, or just for an interesting read, and if you find yourself in the area of the University Of New Mexico, I highly suggest you do yourself the favour of sitting in on one of Professor Mead's lectures

Summary: Yes, Yes and Yes. Prince is just that.
Review: If Frank Lloyd Wright is King, than indeed Bart Prince is Prince. The photographs in the book are brilliant and Christopher Mead's Commentary is awesome and highly informative as well. Showing a lot into Bart Prince the man himself. I hope one day to own a Bart Prince Home.

Summary: Eye Candy!
Review: If your a fan of Frank Lloyd Wright, Greene and Greene or Kendrick Kellogg, then you will find this book quiet fascinating.
Prince seems to take his work a step further than most architects offering a touch of fantasy to his architecture. The book has lots of glossy photos, floor plans and information on Prince's life and work.

Summary: Bart Prince
Review: This is a beautiful book, not only on the architecture of Bart Prince, but about Bart Prince himself. It is an excellent book, one of the few in which you can find information on him. It is very detailed. It is usually very hard to find such detailed information about modern architects who are still alive. The written as well as the visual parts are very well done. The photographs are excellent, including images of plans, sections, and elevations. Usually all that is out there on Bart Prince is just concentrated on the Price House , the Prince Residence and his own home, but on this book you will find much more than that. Here, everything is included, his life, his architecture, and his origins.
