Building Community: The Work of Eskew + Dumez + Ripple

Through an analysis of works by Architects Eskew+Dumez+Ripple, this book seeks to pursue the role of the architect as community builder and shaper of human experience in addition to their physical impact on the built landscape.

A first monograph for the firm, the book introduces the Studio's unique, personal and careful approach to the design of buildings of their own time and place within the culturally rich environment of New Orleans and the Deep South region.
