About this title

Synopsis

Architect Joel Sanders is committed to exploring the role of architecture in the formation of social life in his projects, both built and experimental, and his writings, both scholarly and popular. Joel Sanders: Writings and Projects draws on the different facets of his career in a monograph that combines his architectural work with a number of recent essays. Notable projects include House for a Bachelor, which features an Astroturf subterranean backyard spa; the Five Minute Bathroom (designed for Wallpaper magazine), which carries its occupant through his or her morning preparation assembly-line-fashion; and the 24/7 Business Hotel (designed for the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum), a multipurpose environment that caters to twenty-four hours in the life of a business traveler. Sanders has also designed numerous apartments and lofts, which have been widely published in the American and international architectural press.
