"Isay Weinfeld Works is a comprehensive consideration of the architecture and interiors of the great contemporary Brazilian architect, designer, and filmmaker. Weinfeld is renowned for work that exudes the power of classical modernism while being completely of its own moment. Biophilic design, an approach to architecture that emphasizes and embraces the natural world and its restorative qualities, is at its heart, allowing for a gorgeous aesthetic while also celebrating nature. Here, design offers sublime symbiosis, where the natural world and that which is human-made serve as complements. Above all, the buildings are easy to be in, inviting, and elegant -- and all without ostentation. Featured projects span five decades in the architect's ongoing quest for beauty and his deeply felt devotion to modernist principles."
