Richard Meier & Partners: Complete Works 1963-2008 is a massive new monograph that plots the starchitect's career from Le Corbusier acolyte to his more recent commissions executed in glass and steel. Included are designs for the Jubilee Church in Rome (pictured) and Manhattan's celebrity housing project (home to Nicole Kidman, Calvin Klein, and Martha Stewart), among others. The oversize tome also features blueprints, sketches, site plans, and models for "unbuilt" projects like a multitower Madison Square Garden megaplex that will dominate New York's skyline—if the city ever gives Meier the chance.
