Arsign Editions, 2014, 32 x 3.8 x 24 cm, 467 pages, beautiful cloth binding, under illustrated dust jacket, PREFACE: FRANCOIS CHASLIN, 1152 illustrations

The author, architect, town planner, teacher, has placed his architectural creation for 60 years in a continuity taking into account the evolution of the art of building from prehistory to the present day. He draws inspiration from the past, particularly vernacular architecture around the world, studies traditional Japan at length, retains the contributions of the four great masters of the 20th century, seeks contact with the natural or urban environment in a state of balance and legibility of the components of the built space.

In the history of men, architecture is the fruit of a progressive crystallization whose beginning and end are inseparable.

Roland SCHWEITZER, far from solitary objects, contributes to contemporary architecture which calls for participation by sparking human-environment dialogue
