de William Hall

"With 170 structures from the last 1,000 years, the book includes works by some of the world's most celebrated architects -- from Renzo piano's otherworldly Jean-Marie Tjibaou cultural centre to FOA's sprawling timber landscape for the Yokohama International Ferry Terminal and Le Corbusier's humble room-sized log cabin, Le Cabanon-- demonstrating the stratling variety of structures the material has created."--Book jacket.
