TASCHEN Arts & Architecture 1945-49 by David F. Travers. Hardcover, 25 x 32 cm, 632 pages. From the end of World War II until the mid-1960s, exciting things were happening in American architecture. Emerging talents were focusing on innovative projects that integrated at once modern design and low-cost materials.
