Designed by Woods. "Lebbeus Woods is best known for his visionary architectural renderings along with his contributions to the look of the films "Alien3" and "Twelve Monkeys", "Earthquake!" is the first in the RIEAeuropa Concepts series of monographs that present one new idea/concept per volume. It presents a summary of design research exploring the implications of earthquake for architecture and urban form in regions of seismic instability. The author believes that radically new design strategies are needed for these regions, and he presents his proposals in an extensive series of drawings and models for complex tectonic landscapes formed by unpredictable natural forces".
