The book would be a monograph documenting the architectural works and philosophy of Peter Pran.

Winnner of twenty honorary awards from the American Institute of Architects and twelve international competitions to date, the American-Norwegian architect Peter Pran is now working on commissions in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Korea, Hong Kong, Japan, Brazil, Norway and the UAE, and has major buildings under construction in New York.Pran joined NBBJ in 1996 bringing with him his team of young designers (with Jonathan Ward, Timothy Johnson, Paul Davis and Dave Koenan) well versed in state-of-the-art computer technology -- enabling them to work in three-dimensions from the outset and to provide prospective clients with a clear image of their future building, both inside and out, and of its impact on the site.With its introduction by Christian Norberg-Schulz and essays by Kenneth Frampton, Fumihiko Maki, and Juhani Pallasmaa, this volume -- complete with a list of projects and buildings to date -- serves as the perfect introduction to the philosophy and design methods of this important international architect and his team.
