Poetry, Property, and Place 01: Stefan Behnisch / Gerald Hines

The book, Poetry, Property, and Place, 01: Stefan Behnisch / Gerald Hines is the first in a series of books from the Yale School of Architecture, which studies the collaborative process between architects and developers made possible by the Edward P. Bass Distinguished Visiting Architecture Fellowship.  In a Yale advanced studio, students designed projects that would transform Garibaldi Repubblica, a neglected site in central Milan, into a vital urban place.  The book includes interviews with Bass Distinguished Visiting Fellow Gerald D. Hines; Saarinen Visiting Professor Stefan Behnisch; as well as those who participated in the studio research process.  The book is distributed by W. W. Norton & Company and will be available internationally.  The second volume in the series Stuart Lipton/Richard Rogers/Chris Wise and Malcolm Smith will be published in 2007.
