The term "boss architecture" was coined by Wes Jones, the San Francisco architect, who calls it "an interventive upgrading process" in which "the expressiveness of the intervention is as important as its effectiveness". Jones' projects include the UCLA Chiller Plant and the Head Start Childcare Facility in Heightstown, New Jersey. After working for six years at Holt Hinshaw Pfau Jones, where he was design principal for such projects as the Astronauts Memorial at the Kennedy Space Center, he formed his own practice, Jones Partners Architecture, in 1993. In his use of industrial materials, Jones both engages and confronts technology, bridging the separation between architecture and nature, and raising questions about our uses of technological advances. This highly illustrated monograph on Jones' practice investigates 17 projects in detail, through descriptions, photographs and drawings, together with essays written by Jones himself. Also included is a chronology of Jones' projects.
