Ralph Johnson's work spans a wide range of location and program types, with each project being distinct yet consistent in an underlying process and design intent. From a residential high-rise in Chicago, to a university in Africa, to a museum in a park in Asia, Johnson's work is environmentally responsible and uniquely suited to the particular needs of each client, climate, and site. The projects in this book, both built and unbuilt, represent Johnson's concern for humanistic values and his emphasis on process rather than preconceived product, allowing the work to respond to diverse cultures and urban conditions.PUBLIARQ.COM
