In 3 x 3, the work of Seattle-based architecture firm Suyama Peterson Deguchi is broken down into a case study of three recently constructed residences. Sharing inherent architectonic characteristics and employing similar design philosophies, these homes are tested on three different kinds of sites and a remote island getaway, perched high atop a rocky bluff, affording "big" views of the archipelago below; a long and narrow site in a historic beach community on Puget Sound; and a site situated on a golf-course fairway, surrounded by homes built in more traditional styles.With complete sets of drawings, photographs, and text, 3 x 3 documents the firm's pursuit of timeless and elegant design, which established their reputation as one of the leading architecture firms in the Pacific Northwest.

The Single Building series are destined to be highly collectible books each focusing on an important contemporary single building. The projects are selected for their unique character, innovative design, or technical genius, and range in building type from small residences to expansive museums. Each book acts as a journal documenting the life of the building from design concept to finished structure including photographs, drawings, details, and text from designer and client. Single Whanki Museum—The Whanki Museum, in Seoul, Korea, is a museum that pays tribute to the contemporary Korean painter, Kim Whanki. Commissioned by the Whanki Foundation, the Cambridge, MA architect, Kyu Sung Woo was chosen because of his friendship with Whanki and his respect for his art. Carefully sited to explore the themes of moon, mountains, clouds, rocks, and trees found so often in Whanki’s art, it is located in a ravine in a residential area in Seoul, faces Mount Pukasan to the south and Mound Inwangsan to the west. It is this integration between nature and artwork that makes the spectacular museum so significant. This and more is shown in this beautiful volume.

The Henry Art Gallery at the University of Washington in Seattle needed transforming as it was overshadowed by large buildings that surrounded it. The award-winning Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects, known for its restoration to Frank Lloyd Wright's Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, was commissioned to intervene. The firm was able to integrate site, circulation, building and context that beautifully reconciles the site with the rest of the campus. Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects is based in New York City.
