This original edition of Five Architects captures the early, influential work of the architects Peter Eisenman, Michael Graves, Charles Gwathmey, John Hejduk, and Richard Meier, a group known as The New York Five. The book documents a pivotal moment in architectural theory and practice, with each architect’s work presented through drawings, photographs, and critiques that reflect a minimalist approach centred on pure form rather than function. Introduced by architectural critic Colin Rowe, Five Architects is recognised as a significant piece of postmodern architectural literature, marking a time when these architects collectively pushed boundaries, promoting architecture as a formal art form. This copy bears a previous owner's mark on the front page, adding to its history, and is in acceptable vintage condition, with age-appropriate wear. A valuable resource for students and enthusiasts of modern architecture, this publication stands as a testament to a defining era in American design.
