A View from the Top : Viewpoint Collection, Hardback Book

A View from the Top : Viewpoint Collection Hardback

Hardback

Description

The photography collected in A View from the Top may have arisen out of a desire to document a singular body of work—the Viewpoint Collection.

Through Kelley’s eye, lens, and postproduction choices, however, it advances the very way that buildings can be photographed and understood, allowing us to visit residences that most of us will never see in person. The photographs also demonstrate that these projects are quintessentially Californian.

Their emphasis on open plans, airy modernism, the indoor-outdoor relationship, natural textures and colour-palette, and an intensive attention to landscaping are also quintessentially Los Angeles.

The buildings—which are the creations of some of the world’s most renowned architects—are inspired and inspiring.

They are luxurious, aspirational, and visually exciting.

The book is both a valuable contribution to architectural history and a pleasure to read.
