PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Malcolm Woollen is an architect and an Assistant Visiting Professor at Pennsylvania State University, USA.
Erik Gunnar Asplund was a highly skilled architect and one of very few who seemingly effortlessly managed to bridge classicism and modernism in the early 20th century. Asplund saw architecture as an allkunstwerk where interior, architecture and landscape blended into one. This book covers that fusion of architecture and landscape, which is ultimately important for a full understanding of Asplund as well as for Swedish modernism. Thorbjoern Andersson, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Sweden Few modern architects have shown such psychological, emotional and cultural depth in their work as Erik Gunnar Asplund, and few have had such a subtle and poetic sense of the interplay of landscape and architecture. In this new book Malcolm Woollen not only does an important in-depth analysis of 4 of Asplunds key projects in terms of the relationship between building and landscape but he also effectively puts Asplunds work in relation to the major philosophical, literary and cultural currents of his time. It is a most valuable contribution. Stuart Wrede, former director, Dept. of Architecture and Design, MoMa, New York, USA
