This three-volume boxed set focuses on LaRosa's highly individual, richly complex vision of design and craftsmanship through a broad range of completed domestic projects. Each volume looks at a different aspect of his career. His architecture, his furniture, and his objects are meant to engage the viewer in known rituals or contemporary "allegories of the spirit." A wonderful consistency is revealed from one scale to the next. All of the work utilizes the effort of craftsmen and the articulate rendering of material. AUTHOR: Salvatore LaRosa is a founding partner of B Five Studio. In addition to his work as an architect and designer, he was Treasurer of The Architectural League of New York and taught at Parsons School of Design.
