Title: The glass farm. Biography of a building

The chronicle of the Glass Farm is a history that reads like a novel.Author Gerard Buenen, editor-in-chief of Schijndels Weekblad, has written a gripping, fact-filled biography of the building. The story is accompanied by the photography of Niels Stomps and informative illustrations by MVRDV. ISBN: 9789462080881. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
