Résumé du livre

The American Institute of Architects conferred the Thomas Jefferson Award for Public Architecture on Richard Dattner, FAIA "for his lifelong commitment to the highest design standards in public architecture and his professional achievements, which have enriched the lives of countless Americans". The projects illustrated engage their users and surroundings in a dialogue of sensitivity and respect. In a civil conversation, all the variety of human imagination and aspiration can be heard. The civil architecture of Richard Dattner aims to house, protect, nurture, and ennoble this discourse of civilization.
