Perhaps best identified with his Cube houses built on columns in Rotterdam, Dutch architect Piet Blom studied under Aldo van Eyck and was responsible for a wide range of designs throughout the Dutch architectural landscape; ranging from private houses, public buildings, offices, medium density housing and apartment buildings.
As this monograph testifies, each of the 44 projects documented here were approached with the same uncompromising set of principles. Generously illustrated throughout with black and white photographs, plans and elevations, the publication is accompanied by personal anecdotes and explanatory essays.
