Resumen: "I live, practice, teach, and build in northwest Arkansas, in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. It's a place considered to be in the middle of nowhere, yet ironically close to everywhere. It is an environment of real natural beauty and, simultaneously, one of real constructed ugliness. Abandonment, exploitation, erasure and nostalgia are all aspects of this place and are conditions as authentic as its natural beauty and local form. This land of disparate conditions in not just a setting for my work -- it is part of the work. By choosing to live and work here -- to call it home -- I've been able to get beyond the surface of things, to turn over the rock and discover the complex and rich underbelly of my place -- its visceral presences and expressive character -- that so informs and sustains my efforts. I am working from the conviction that architecture is larger than the subject of architecture." --Marlon Blackwell Marlon Blackwell is a passionate polemicist. He's also a very gifted architect. The projects in this first monograph on the "radical ruralist," as touted by the Royal Institute of British Architects, offer a new architectural language that at once celebrate the vernacular and transgress the boundaries of the conventional. The results are -- we can't help it, there's no better word -- beautiful. Incisive essays by David Buege, Dan Hoffman, and Juhani Pallasmaa and lush photography by Tim Hursley, Richard Johnson, and Kevin Latady explore Blackwell's projects, including his widely acclaimed Keenan TowerHouse, the award-winning Moore HoneyHouse, 2Square House, and Flynn-Schmitt BarnHouse, studios, and institutional buildings.

CHOICE Review

Regionalism is all too often trivialized through use of cliche and creating themes, but sensitive response to, and celebration of, a region can entail a much more sophisticated repertoire. Through documenting the work of architect Blackwell, this book thoughtfully underscores how spirited and engaging a regionalist approach can be. Blackwell identifies with a tradition of nonconformists from the south-central US: Bruce Goff in Oklahoma, Fay Jones in Arkansas, and Samuel Mockbee from his alma mater, Auburn University. He has absorbed lessons from all these predecessors while developing his own strong yet accessible design vocabulary. Blackwell's buildings speak directly to the mass-produced vernacular forms in the region, most of them dating from the mid-20th century. His work is transformative without losing touch with its roots. These buildings are eminently comfortable in their down-home surroundings, celebrating the place and raising the expectations of what can be done in mainstream America. This book should inspire student and practitioner alike of the possibilities in architecture attainable through modest means. ^BSumming Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals. R. Longstreth George Washington University
