Arguably Sweden&rsquo;s most distinguished modernist, he is more influential to other architects internationally today than he has been during his lifetime. Countless architecture lovers from around the world visit his still existent buildings. Stockholm&rsquo;s woodland cemetery Skogskyrkog&aring;rden, his most significant contribution to landscape design, is a UNESCO World Heritage site.<\/p>\n<p>This authoritative new monograph on Sigurd Lewerentz is based on extensive research undertaken at ArkDes, Sweden&rsquo;s national centre for architecture and design, where his archive and personal library are being kept. It features a wealth of drawings and sketches, designs for furniture and interiors, model photographs etc. from his estate, most of which published here for the first time, as well as with newly taken photographs of his realised buildings. Essays by leading experts explore Lewerentz&rsquo;s life and work, his legacy and lasting significance from today&rsquo;s perspective.<\/p>\n<p>This vast, beautifully designed book offers the most comprehensive survey to date of Lewerentz&rsquo;s entire achievements in all fields of his manifold work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The definitive monograph on Swedish modernist architect Sigurd Lewerentz, offering the most comprehensive survey to date of his manifold work, featuring a wealth of previously unpublished material from Lewerentz&rsquo;s estate held at ArkDes, Sweden&rsquo;s national center for architecture and design, alongside new essays by leading experts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19511,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[5559],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-19510","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-architecture-landscape-design","7":"author-edited-by-johan-orn","8":"author-edited-by-kieran-long","9":"author-photographs-by-johan-dehlin","10":"author-with-mikael-andersson","11":"publisher-park-books","13":"first","14":"instock","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sigurd Lewerentz - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: Sigurd Lewerentz, Pages: 712 Pages, Publish Date: 21st May 2021, Author: Edited by Johan \u00d6rn, Edited by Kieran Long, Photographs by Johan Dehlin, With Mikael Andersson, ISBN: 9783038602323.
