Nota de la solapa:

Architectural Monographs No 18 FTL Todd Dalland Nicholas Goldsmith Softness Movement and Light Robert Kronenburg Todd Dalland and Nicholas Goldsmith of New York based FTL architects and engineers, lead a multidisciplinary design practice that is intimately involved in the development of tensile architectural forms. With over a thousand projects created during a twenty-year period, their work is at the forefront of establishing new design possibilities that merge traditional and innovative technological strategies to find beautiful and appropriate solutions for a wide range of building types. FTL have consistently stretched the boundaries of architectural development, blurring the line between design and research, in creating building forms that provide a tantalising glimpse of the future. The architecture described in this monograph is a potent example of what can be achieved with the sensitive manipulation of lightweight forms. The highly successful Architectural Monographs series focuses on individuals of international stature who have been influential in practice and in education. Each monograph is designed to reflect the style of the architect featured, providing an invaluable record of the work and an important source book for further study.
