What makes Steven Holl one of the most celebrated architects working today? As we learn in "Parallax, " his success comes from his sculptural form making, his interest in the poetics of space, color, and materiality, and his fascination with scientific phenomena. Holl reveals his working methods in this, his biggest and most ambitious book yet on his work-part treatise, part manifesto, and part, as Holl writes, "liner notes" to fifteen recent projects, some never before published. "Parallax" traces Holl's ideas on topics as diverse as the "chemistry of matter" and the "pressure of light," and shows how they emerge in his architectural work: "strange attractors" at Cranbrook, "porosity" in his new dormitory at MIT, "tripleness" in the new Bellevue Art Museum in Washington. The result is a book that provides a personal tour of the work of one of the world's most esteemed architects. "Parallax" is designed by Michael Rock of the award-winning design firm 2x4. It is our fourth book on Holl's work, following "Anchoring, Intertwining, " and "The Chapel of St. Ignatius."
The mechanical gives way to diverse, digitally dynamic systems.

our pleasure comes from moving about so as to make the building move in turn, while we enjoy all these combinations of its parts. As they vary, the column turns, depths recede, galleries glide: a thousand visions escape. (查看原文)

其实我印象最深的还是探讨composition与complex体块关系的那一张图，还有借用Sculpture in the expanded field文章中的那张图解。看了一些文章，发现Rosaline Krauss的艺术评论真是影响了许多建筑师啊。（高频引用文献。）

继“锚固”“交织”后，这本“视差”强调诚实的身体乃知觉现象学叙事之核心，又装逼的试图将（天体）物理学与自己的理念相联系。parallax、criss-crossing、enmeshed experience、strange attractor、duration，这一个个小词汇整的

最早是在学院图书馆翻到的，当时还在做三好坞的茶室，戚广平老师评的图，从这本书获得的启发，当时英语烂，翻个两三页就睡着，根本看不完，但心里一直惦记着。几个月前托Mina从美国带了一本回来，又是拿起放下，这两天定了计划，倒是一口气看完了
