Résumé:
Tom Kundig is one of the most sought-after architects working today, known for his extraordinary houses that deeply engage with their surrounding environment. Based in the Pacific Northwest, Kundig’s international portfolio includes homes built into rocky sites, dynamic kinetic devices that open walls and roofs, and even moving architecture that travels via railroad track. Spanning nearly four decades of design, "Tom Kundig: Complete Houses" presents 462 residential projects together for the first time. This illustrated 600-page book is both a comprehensive overview of the architect’s career to date and an intimate, personal exploration of his creative practice. The book invites readers to explore 38 of Kundig’s remarkable residences in-depth, each brought to life through original interviews with Kundig, portfolios of his hand-drawn sketches, and photography.

Résumé:
Striking, innovative, and dramatically sited, the twenty-nine projects in 'Tom Kundig: Working Title' reveal the hand of a master of contextually astute, richly detailed architecture. As Kundig's work has increased in scale and variety, in diverse locations from his native Seattle to Hawaii and Rio de Janeiro, it continues to exhibit his signature sensitivity to material and locale and to feature his fascinating kinetic gizmos." Projects range from inviting homes that integrate nature to large-scale commercial and public buildings: wineries, high-performance mixed-use skyscrapers, a Visitor Center for Tillamook Creamery, the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture, and the Wagner Education Center of the Center for Wooden Boats, among others.

Résumé:
Architect Tom Kundig is known worldwide for the originality of his work. This paperback edition of "Tom Kundig: houses," first published in 2006, collects five of his most prominent early residential projects, which remain touchstones for him today. In a new preface written for this edition, Kundig reflects on the influence that these designs continue to have on his current thinking. Each house, presented from conceptual sketches through meticulously realized details, is the product of a sustained and active collaborative process among designer, builder, and client. The work of the Seattle-based architect has been called both raw and refined—disparate characteristics that produce extraordinarily inventive designs inspired by both the industrial structures ubiquitous to his upbringing in the Pacific Northwest and the vibrant craft cultures that are fostered there.
