Springboard in the Pond: An Intimate History of the Swimming Pool
Published by MIT Press (MA) December 1998, 1998
ISBN 10: 0262220598 ISBN 13: 9780262220590
Language: English
Hardcover. Condition: Used - Like New. Although others have written eloquently on the relationship of water to built form, until now no one has investigated the swimming, pool as a quintessentially modern and American space, reflecting America's infatuation with hygiene, skin, and recreation. In The Springboard in the Pond, Thomas van Leeuwen looks at a familiar hole - the domestic swimming pool - and discovers an icon indispensable to the reading of twentieth-century modernism. At one level, the book is a rereading of modern architecture that will leave that story permanently altered. At another level, it is the story of the origin and evolution of the private swimming pool as a building type and cultural artifact. And at still another level, it is a material philosophy of water. Van Leeuwen explores the human relationship to water from a variety of viewpoints: social, religious, artistic, sexual, psychological, technical, and above all architectural. A dazzling reflection on the American swimming pool as an icon of modernism and a social, architectural, and psychological phenomenon. The book's many illustrations--drawings, plans, and photographs--come from an unusual variety of sources, creating what is one of the most provocative visual archives of the swimming pool ever assembled. 210 illustrations, 28 in color. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks. BEAUTIFUL COPY!!!
