A highly sought-after, out-of-print copy of John Lautner, Architect, edited by Frank Escher and published by Princeton Architectural Press (1998).
This comprehensive, oversized 296-page monograph is widely considered the definitive reference book on the legendary Mid-Century Modern architectural master. Designed closely with Lautner before his passing, the book extensively details nearly 50 of his iconic projects—including the Chemosphere, Silvertop, and the Elrod Residence (featured in James Bond’s Diamonds Are Forever). It is packed with lavish photography, historical blueprints, detailed floor plans, and deep-dive interviews.
- Out-of-Print & Scarce: This specific edition is highly elusive, making it a critical prize for architecture book collectors, Mid-Century Modern enthusiasts, and design historians.
- Definitive Content: Unlike smaller introductory booklets, this massive work features technical structural drawings alongside stunning visual profiles.
- Apprentice to Frank Lloyd Wright: Lautner’s prestigious lineage and signature “organic architecture” style keep demand for his monographs permanently high.
