Neutra (TASCHEN Basic Art Series) by Barbara Lamprecht is an elegant architecture and design book dedicated to the visionary work of Richard Neutra (1892–1970), one of the defining masters of modernist architecture.

This richly illustrated volume explores his most important works, revealing how he blended the clean geometry of the International Style with the beauty of mountains, gardens, pools, and the surrounding environment.
