The work of Chicago architect Ralph Johnson explores the use of restrained modernism to enrich and clarify complex programmatic buildings with intriguing assemblies that reveal their functions and hierarchical relationships. Mr. Johnson's goal is to form, through the social art of architecture, an urban environment of buildings that are good civic neighbours as well as distinguished citizens.

Mr. Johnson is a Principal and the Design Director at Perkins+Will. The book includes essays by Rodolphe el- Khoury, Daniel Friedman and Thomas Fisher.
