Sommario/riassunto

Salmela Architect showcases twenty-six completed buildings and sixteen current projects in lavish color photographs and architectural



drawings of one of America's leading "critical regionalist" architects, enabling readers to get a sense of the practicality, ethnicity, and playfulness in David Salmela's work. Architecture critic Thomas Fisher explores Salmela's propensity to draw from regional roots as he creates designs with universal appeal.
