Kevin Roche by Eeva-Liisa Pelkonen

Pritzker Prize-winning architect Kevin Roche (b. 1922) is best known for the large, bold urban structures he designed in the 1960s and 1970s. This book draws on archival materials and interviews to present the full range of Roche's career and place his innovative work within the larger context of modern architecture.

“Eeva Liisa Pelkonen offers a comprehensive overview of Kevin Roche's career and positions his work within the context of late 20th-century architecture… which will surely stand as the definitive text on Roche for years”—Belmont Freeman, Places Journal
