Architecture

Javier Senosiain's architecture is always a discovery and a surprise. This book looks at Senosiain's mind-blowing "bio-architecture," from his 1985 Organic House, with its sinuous curves and peanut-inspired form, to his 2005 Quetzalcoatl Nest, built to curve serpentlike down the sloping side of a ravine without disturbing any of the existing trees and natural growth. These projects, as well as The Serpent, The Shark, The Whale, Casa Flor, Satellite Complex, The Kiss, The Nautilus, and others, are fully explored and documented, often with step-by-step photographs of the construction process.
