Lebbeus Woods Book order
Lebbeus Woods was an American architect and artist whose provocative visions explored systems in crisis and the confrontation between existing order and the new. His work, politically charged and visionary, often reflected devastated or transitional landscapes. Woods saw himself as a "constructor of worlds," striving to dismantle fixed forms and examining the "interplay of metrical systems" as the foundation of a universal science.

Pamphlet Architecture was begun in 1977 by William Stout and Steven Holl as an independent vehicle for dialogue among architects, and has become a popular venue for publishing the works and thoughts of a younger generation of architects. Small in scale, low in price, but large in impact, these books present and disseminate new and innovative theories. The modest format of the books in the Pamphlet Architecture Series belies the importance and magnitude of the ideas within.
