Inhaltsangabe

Vancouver is one of the most architecturally striking cities in the world, but it is impossible to understand a city without understanding its builders. The city owes much of its unique beauty to the creative vision of architect Rand Iredale. A man greatly influenced by both his mathematical mind and a philosophical soul, Iredale served as mentor to some of British Columbia’s most accomplished architects. Together they helped to shape architectural attitudes, conceived greater possibilities, and made Vancouver into a dynamic model of livability that is at one with its natural terrain and colorful heritage. Lovingly assembled, Finding a Good Fit is a family album that collects many of the important episodes and moments in Iredale’s life and explores the nature of relationships ? between land and building, husband and wife, apprentice and mentor ? and the importance of building partnerships with family, friends, colleagues, clients, and communities.
