{"product_id":"jim-olson-building-nature-art","title":"Jim Olson: Building, Nature, Art","description":"A lavish monograph celebrating one of the most respected and admired American architects, known for his sensitivity to the nature and traditions of the Pacific Northwest\nSeattle-based architect Jim Olson blends straight, clean architectural lines and curving natural scenery with such ease that one forgets they weren’t always in harmony. Over the course of a career spanning nearly fifty years, in collaboration with his partner Tom Kundig, Olson has established a reputation for thoughtfully considered buildings, evident in projects that suit and enhance their locations in Mexico, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Northwest.\nThis up-to-date survey of Olson’s work, focusing chiefly on his buildings for art-collecting private clients and large-scale resorts, offers a stunning look―by way of plans, sketches, and photographs―at the career of a great American architect. The accompanying text includes an introduction by architecture critic Aaron Betsky as well as Olson’s own reflections on the medium. 400 illustrations\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0500343330\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.0500343330.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Betsky, Aaron|Olson, Jim\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy does appear to be signed by the author.  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Good Books Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56482106376497,"sku":"GBV.0500343330.G","price":47.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/3730\/2065\/files\/0500343330-0.jpg?v=1790458837","url":"https:\/\/goodbookscompany.org\/products\/jim-olson-building-nature-art","provider":"Good Books Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
