Realms of impossibility: water

In the tradition of his Sins + Other Spatial Relatives, this new work follows the unique trajectory of architect C. J. Lim s thoughts and observations on the kooky world of inventors. Showcasing inventive designs for buildings, components, and devices, from such leading figures as Heath Robinson, Rebecca Horn, Jean Prouve, and Jean Nouvel, this book is an exhilarating celebration of architectural inventors and their intriguing creations. An eclectic mix of observations, theories, and designs, this latest volume in a series of books by C. J. Lim presents architecture s spin on the all-too-human impulse to tinker.
