Publisher's Summary
In a series of fascinating tales, Gene Kohn explains how he helped build one of the most successful architecture firms in the world, offering inspiring lessons on business leadership and design innovation that can be applied to many fields.
Forthright and engaging, Kohn examines both award-winning achievements and missteps in his 50-year career in architecture. In the process, he shows how his firm, KPF, has helped change the buildings and cities where we live, work, learn, and play.
Critic Reviews
"Name any city that has seen explosive growth in the past century - Tokyo, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Seoul, Kuala Lumpur - and he's had a hand in the making of its skyline. Name any 'old world' financial metropolis - New York, London, Frankfurt - and he's had a hand in designing its skyline, too.” (Juan Sebastian Pinto, Forbes)
