The remarkably prolific career of an innovative young Chilean architect is profiled in this engaging study. Born in 1965 and in professional practice since 1991, this architect's impact on his native landscape is observed mainly in a series of private houses located in some of the most sublime sites in Chile. The forceful yet austere character of his design approach and its radical relationship to surrounding landscape elements can be fully appreciated by viewing this book's fine pictorial panorama.
