We prefer to construct our buildings with the land, where architecture recedes and becomes a frame,” writes Chad Oppenheim. These words are the theme of "Spirit of Place", the first monograph of the work of Oppenheim Architecture. Through passion and sensitivity towards man and nature, the firm creates monumental yet silent work that invokes a site’s inherent power. The book, with one hundred and twenty stunning photographs and minimal text, features seven of the firm’s projects, ranging in scale and location from homes in the Bahamas and Aspen to a resort in the Jordanian desert. The projects are categorized by each site’s predominant natural element: dune, desert, stream, river, sea, canyon, and peninsula. The images, like the architecture, focus on and celebrate the natural world, illustrating Oppenheim’s design philosophy that “form follows feeling.” The volume includes text by Chad Oppenheim, Val K. Warke, Antón García-Abril, and Mark Jarzombek. A brand new, most handsome example additionally SIGNED by architect Chad Oppenheim.
