Summary:
The book spans Murcutt's entire career, from the early modernist houses to his most recent commissions in the 21st century, identifies recurring themes in his work and analyses how his buildings 'marry modern architecture to the place, the territory, the landcape' to arrive at an ecological functionalism. The buildings themselves are an eclectic selection ranging from Murcutt's courtyard houses in Sydney to free-standing residences set in Australia's barren and isolated landscapes. The full-colour photography, much of it supplied from the architect's own private collection, testifies to the aesthetic appeal of the buildings, while Murcutt's line drawings and plans lend further insight into his work.

Pictures From Italy, the series' initial volume, also represents Christ & Gantenbein's first architectural project after they had setup their studio in Basel. The pictures were shot during a six week journey throughout Italy in 1999. The journey itself and the images seen and taken proved to be of fundamental influence to Christ & Gantenbein's entire work since. Intending to look at historical architecture, in a quasi-unhistorical way, with the contemporary view of the 21st century, they chose Italy in search for absolute timelessness.

As the world’s foremost cycling nation, the Netherlands is the only country where the number of bikes exceeds the number of people, primarily because the Dutch have built a cycling culture accessible to everyone, regardless of age, ability, or economic means.
