Swiss-born, Paris-based architect Philippe Rahm (born 1967) has synthesized disciplines ranging from physics, physiology and meteorology to create urban and architectural works that radically advance the prospects and possibilities of sustainable architecture. Rahm has presented his ideas internationally, lecturing at Yale, Harvard, Cooper Union and UCLA, and representing Switzerland at the 8th Architecture Biennale in Venice.

This book surveys Rahm’s works of the past 12 years, including the Taichung Jade Eco Park in Taiwan. The book is designed to provoke a subtle gradation of sensations, by using different papers, by transitioning from very formal scientific presentation to warmer poetic and personal contributions, and through a variation in the illustrations from schematic drawings to evocative photographs.
