"Working across scales - from a New York skyscraper to a rural house - the Dutch-born architect Winka Dubbeldam has established herself as one of the most provocative figures in the field by seamlessly integrating function and form, technology and comfort, city and home. Folded glass facades, intelligent building cores, and interactive environments highlight the work of her progressive, process-based studio/laboratory, Archi-Tectonics. As much resource as monograph, AT-INdex explores Dubbeldam's intense, research-laden approach to more than twenty projects, including the highly acclaimed From HardWare to SoftForm exhibition, Aida Salon, and Gipsy Trail Residence. Incisive essays complement lush photographs, informative diagrams, and the architect's compelling designs." --
