Produktbeschreibung
This book showcases the work of John Friedman Alice Kimm Architects (JFAK), a Los Angeles-based architecture practice recognized for its creation of iconic, experiential environments that are reflective of culture and context and expressive of inclusivity and identity. Founded by John Friedman and Alice Kimm, JFAK is an American architecture firm in Los Angeles, California, USA that serves clients ranging from small nightclub operators and homeowners to developers, universities, and cities. JFAK's distinct formal landscapes are the result of an inquisitive design process that mines the possibilities and complexities of our contemporary, heterogeneous society. As such, the firm's wide-ranging body of work rejects adherence to diagram, at once represents and redefines the City of Los Angeles, and through its integration of technology and narrative captures a global zeitgeist. This book illustrates, through drawings, photos, and narratives not only of the work but of outside inspirations, the influences that form and define the underlying design logic of JFAK's projects.
