His simple yet powerful architecture incorporates elements of his home country’s vernacular identity – including the use of wood and carefully picked Modernist influences – brought into the 21st century with excellent execution, quality materials and a hands-on approach. His most important projects include the Aurland Lookout in Norway and the series of artists' studios and a hotel on Fogo Island in Newfoundland. This second revised edition includes new projects and unpublished material. Edited by Jonathan Bell and Ellie Stathaki (respectively editor-at-large and architecture editor at Wallpaper), the book was designed by renowned graphic designer Henrik Nygren.
