Summary

A unique photographic presentation of midcentury Modernist mecca Columbus, Indiana, by photographer Thomas R. Schiff. The small town of Columbus, Indiana, only fifty miles south of Indianapolis, has cemented its place as a major architecture and design destination. Ranked by National Geographic as America’s most significant historic place on the strength of its architectural heritage, Columbus contains over fifty buildings by noted modern architects—including I. M. Pei, Cesar Pelli, Robert Venturi, Richard Meier, John Carl Warnecke, and Harry Weese—as well as public artworks by other internationally renowned architects and artists. Panoramic photographer Thomas Schiff skillfully combines his love of photography and architecture in Columbus, Indiana, presenting more than fifty exteriors and interiors by celebrated architects and designers in a singular panoramic format. Providing a fresh, new perspective for these notable historic buildings, this book is the perfect gift for architecture and photography fans alike.
