VJAA, Vincent James Associates Architects

de Vincent James, Jennifer Yoos

"The Minnesota-based architecture firm VJAA defies traditional methods and definitions of the typical architectural practice. VJAA, the first monograph on this talented and award-winning firm, explores its work in insightful texts, lush photographs, detailed drawings, and highly original collages - essential parts of their design process and works of art in their own right. The monograph features sixteen of the firm's projects - from small-scale residences, including the Dayton and Type/Variant houses, to large-scale institutional buildings, such as the Minneapolis Rowing Club Boathouse, Tulane University Lavin Bernick Student Center, and St. John's Abbey and Monastery Guesthouse."--Jacket.
