To encourage exploration of various architects and buildings, I will post an image of a new building on a weekly basis, so we may all play "Name that Architect and Building!!!". Sorry to be lame, but I'm sort of tired of hearing how wonderful Rem is or how everyone hates Gehry. Let's get some other guys on the table, instead of regurgitating the same thing. Anyway,
I hope this link works

no cheating... but the name on the building is a dead giveaway!
other hint: it no longer exists!

ha, I've been to the J&Rs that's in the ground floor of this place. Had to do some google mapping, but it's the park row building by Robert Henderson Robertson. Here's a slideshow of some of his other projects in nyc, via nytimes. Will post in a few.

to keep this on the front page, it's a school, and the architect is known for his hi-tech, highly engineered buildings.

the first series of images is the building in question (a house, by the way phuyake') - the second post has an image of the school in sao paulo (as holz.box pointed out), also by the architect in question, as a hint...

ah so then it's Vilanova Artigas.
to keep this going... probably a softball for some but i love this cantilever:

Thirst Pavilion
Expo Saragozza, Spagna 2007, Collezione: cloud 9, Courtesy: Fondazione La Biennale di Venezia taken from the Venice Biennale Review 2008 here on archinect. It sprays salt water on the cushions and when the water evaporates it leaves traces of the salt as a kind of shading.

holz I've found the building, but for the life of my can't find the architect. I know it's a viewing platform for the Roman Ruins in Rankweil - Brederis, but for some reason can't track down who did it.

damn! i can't believe I didn't get that, I have the book too, and it's definitely in that back section of projects in progress. Nice to see it built.
And their monograph is amazing; more of an object then a book and a great representation of their work.
