In this book, the renowned architect Stanley Saitowitz, the Principal at Stanley Saitowitz Natoma Architects Inc., presents a collection of lectures and writing expressing thoughts and ideas that he has developed over fifty years of teaching and practice. Several of the pieces originate with ideas he has shared with students to incite wonder and uncover the inherent awe of certain places and buildings, while others examine evolving interests in his work and the different paths he has taken on his architectural journey, or were written to explore the underlying meaning of ceremonies and gatherings. This accumulated material is grouped across six topics and illustrated with photographs that reveal the author's perspectives and ways of seeing. Recurring throughout is a continued interest in the relationship of buildings to their settings, and the sense that they are both inventions and extensions of found conditions. Photographs show images of places and buildings framed through the lens of the camera s eye which become ideas for texts which in turn expand the images.
