Books by Peter Zumthor

Peter Zumthor's passion is the creation of buildings with architectural atmosphere. But how can one actually set out to achieve it? In nine short, illustrated chapters framed as a process of self-observation, Zumthor describes what he has on his mind as he sets about creating the atmosphere of his houses.

Peter Zumthor in dialogue with Mari Lending explores how history, time and temporalities reverberates across his oeuvre, a feeling of history has informed his continuous attempts of emotional reconstruction by means of building.
