Considered one of his country's leading young talents, Sean Godsell has built a reputation outside of his native Australia for his houses--from the couture to the assembly line. While his elegant Carter Tucker House, a weekend retreat designed for a photographer and his partner, is a glass box sheathed in panels of slender cedar battens; many of these panels are in fact operable flaps that, when opened during the day, allow the house to be transformed into a naturally lit photography studio. On the other end of the spectrum, is Godsell's prototype FutureShack, a prefabricated emergency relief housing unit made of recycled shipping containers. This unit was on view at the Cooper Hewitt Museum in New York City during the summer of 2004. This book documents all 23 of Godsell's projects to date, including built works as well as competition entries for larger scale buildings.

Description: "At the age of 44, Sean Godsell (b. 1960) is one of Australia's leading young architects and is beginning to attract an international following for his spare industrial forms and innovative use of materials. Trained at the University of Melbourne, Godsell travelled through Europe and Asia in the early and mid 1980s and then spent 1986-1988 working in London with Sir Denys Lasdun. He subsequently returned to Melbourne to work for the Hassell Group and then opened his own firm in 1994. Featured in the Phaidon Atlas of Contemporary Architecture, Godsell is known primarily for his residential work, which employs economic means to maximum effect. In 2002, *wallpaper magazine listed him as one of the 10 people destined to 'change the way we live. ' This is the first book to provide an overview of this innovative architect's career."--with a bonus offer--
