about

This book features extensive and beautifully photographed works by architectural photographer Juan Rodrigues, showcasing the architecture of Manuel Aires Mateus. With a keen eye and a sense for form, mass, and light, Rodrigues chose the stark contrasts of black-and-white film and dramatic lighting effects to document the renowned Portuguese architect's works, which have a strong sculptural character. His geometric buildings, usually in white, feature distinctive, clean lines and bold volumes that dramatically stand out in their respective contexts, whether natural landscapes or urban settings.

What's striking is that it's a completely black book, but once you start turning the pages, you won't be able to put it down. The beautiful contrast of light and shadow is a must-read for architecture lovers. There are some large scratches and scuffs on the front and back covers, but the inside is in good condition. Please check before purchasing.
