2013019384Metropolis Books/Gordon de Vries Studio 2013. This is a fine hardcover copy with a fine dust jacket with no wear at all. Completely clean inside and out. Stated first edition first printing. Horace Gifford 1932- 1992 was a modernist architect who developed a beach house style for Fire Island. He built his first house there in 1961. Over the next three decades he built over 60 vacation homes across Fire Island. The serene world of Fire Island in the 1960's attracted the middle class and celebrities alike. Montgomery Clift Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor could be seen there walking Fire Island's famous boardwalks. Truman Capote wrote Breakfast at Tiffany's there. Horace Gifford died relatively young of AIDS in 1992. He deserves this book which is for everyone who while walking around Fire Island wondered who built these houses Meticulously researched and full of vintage black & white as well as recent color photographs.

2001102797Bilingual greek-english edition. Two volumes. Cloth 31x31 cm 232202 pp. ill.; shipping weight 4 kg. Contains 28 applied projects on preservation of monuments in Northern Greece. The selection of these realized works was approached through two perspectives; on the one hand the applied studies sought for publication should present as much as possible of the wide range of the country's architectural heritage from the antiquity until the 20th century while on the other hand they had to be interesting and well documented ones. As far as the presentation method is concerned it was seen fit to begin with a brief reference to the background history and condition before any restoration work on each one of the included monuments and historical buildings. Then the study on the restoration and re-use is laid out followed by comments and photographs showing the phases during and after the works. Moreover technical descriptions general analysis and proposal plans detail drawings and pictures have been included. The reader is thereby able to have an overall understanding of the research methods of the specialized tasks as well as of the materials and the procedure used for their application with a view to the restoration and revival of this monumental wealth of Attica. To sum up almost 2000 drawings details archive photographs pictures of jobsites and complete works as well as archive material of state and freelance architects have been laid out on the 434 pages of the two volumes. All of them provide evidence of a panorama of methods techniques and special applications which are useful to those who systematically or occasionally deal with respective works. // The shipping cost estimated by the system covers books weighing up to 750 gr; a surcharge depending on the actual weight and destination applies for heavier books.
