Houses Made of Wood and Light: The Life and Architecture of Hank Schubart

This book will make a valuable contribution to the field of architecture, and in particular domestic architecture, by bringing to light the many projects Schubart designed with a particular sensitivity to the qualities of making place, formed with strong personal values and sensibilities. The sheer quantity and variety of his designs are formidable, and tell not only of the rich possibilities that exist within a conventional palette of materials and construction methods, but also of his desterity and finesse....The questions Schubart asks of his work might be thought of a 'universal' questions that architects (and clients and builders) ask of themselves, and of the projects they confront.
