On the Bookshelf

By: Edward Keegan

“There are usually 50 or 100 books on people’s desks at any given moment,” says Robert A.M. Stern of his firm’s collection of about 11,000 architectural tomes. “The library is the gateway to our architecture, conceptually. We do a lot of research—from both the aesthetic and technical points of view—in designing our buildings.”
