 Highly recommended for students of Freys work.
Freys life and architectural achievement is presented in an updated, redesigned edition of a 1990 classic. Archival research by Rosa and interviews with Frey and his colleagues are enhanced with black and white photos of his notable achievements, lending to an important guide.

Customer Review #2:
A splendid addition to architectural studies collections.
Albert Frey established the architectural style known as "desert modernism". His technological ingenuity and sensitivity to landscape are a perfect harmony of place and time. Albert Frey, Architect showcases the best of his work, profusely illustrated with duotone photographs, plans and sketches. Albert Frey, Architect is enhanced further with an annotated list of structures designed by Frey, a bibliography of writings on and by Frey, and reprints of letters between Frey and famed architect Le Corbusier. Albert Frey, Architect is a highly recommended addition to any personal, professional, or academic architectural studies collection.

Customer Review #3:
 Beautiful book, floor plans and photos.
This is a wonderful book about a fascinating architect. It covers his career from beginning to 1987. Lots of information, lots of photographs. I have spent hours and hours poring over every page. I love his work. Only drawback was choice of bold typeface for various large areas of text. Princeton Architectural Press plans to republish it in December 1999. I am looking for a used copy to give someone for his birthday in March. Know anyone with a copy to spare???
