The firm designs and strategises with a philosophy that places people at the centre of their work; collaboration is what propels their design process forward. This approach is a Perkins+Will legacy, dating back to one of the firm's first and most prestigious projects, the 1930s Crow Island School, designed with the insight founder Larry Perkins gained from attending school with the children. This monograph explores the firm's work through its rich history, examining a variety of completed and conceptually designed projects that promote the firm's philosophy of 'ideas and buildings that honour the broader goals of society'.

Penthouses and their luxury apartment counterparts have always had a glamorous history. They speak of prestige, luxury living high in the sky and of course a certain amount of social elevation. Heiresses, millionaires, media moguls and movie stars have known of the exclusivity, mystery, sophistication and symbolism of high-rise living for decades, ever since Marjorie Merriweather Post Hutton commissioned a 54-room triplex on New York's Fifth Avenue in 1925 with a silver room, a wine room, and a cold storage for her furs. Eighty years on, such places have become the ultimate architectural expression of success, or at least inner urban living at its very best. They also offer some of the most extraordinary views in residential living. View From The Top goes inside the private spaces of some of the world's most magnificent penthouses and apartments and offers a rare insight into not only the designs and lifestyles experienced in these palatial 'mansions in the sky.

This book presents six case-study buildings, each more than a generation old, that were on the brink of oblivion. In each case, Mitchell Giurgola Architects worked closely with the client to determine how the project could be salvaged by incorporating updated program elements to serve a new generation of users. All six case studies present in detail how each project is analysed, from its energy use and curtain-wall performance to its mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, and structural stability. The results are born-again buildings created for a fraction of the cost and cosuming far fewer materials than a new facility built from scratch. Mitchell Giurgola documents a new, more sustainable approach to design and construction that builds on the past, and makes the old better than new.

The Modern Californian Beach House

The Modern Californian Beach House catalogues the eclectic and always original modernist beach house architecture of Patrick Killen, founder of studio 9 one 2. Killen helped introduce serious modern design to the Los Angeles beach communities in the mid-80s, which at the time was a crazy quilt of fantasy structures all built on postage-stamp sized lots. The projects featured in this collection span Killen's stellar career, from the Shearin House, which established modernism as a viable architectural motif on the western edge of Los Angeles, to 139 Hermosa Avenue, a definitive and welcome statement of modernity amid a sea of ramshackle and derelict LA beachside structures. Killen's beach houses have added another textural element to the architectural stewing pot that is beachside LA. He is committed to modernism, which he claims is the architecture of our time, and his architecture reflects a regionalism and humour that encapsulates the California lifestyle.
