From opulent interiors to grand cityscapes to a gaudy neon McDonald's in Las Vegas, Thomas Schiff's panoramas, shot with a medium-format Hulcherama camera (which rotates 360 degrees), celebrate the spatial possibilities of vibrant architecture. "Great buildings are really sculpture you can move within a 360-degree view." A compilation of images from previous book projects including 2010's 'Wright Panorama (on Frank Lloyd Wright creations) and 2008's Vegas 360-Prospect collects the visual highlights of Schiff's panoramic journey throughout the U.S.

Synopsis
From vernacular movie theaters of the 1930s and spectacular hotel resorts to libraries, private residences, universities, museums and the fantastical buildings of Las Vegas, Thomas Schiff's Prospect documents quintessential American architecture at its grandest. Schiff uses panoramic views to draw out vertiginous effects of scale and drama from the sweeping interiors he portrays: "In the past, I've always looked for a photograph and tried to isolate a tiny area that would make a good print," Schiff says. "With panoramic photography, you approach it a different way. Instead of trying to isolate a photograph, you look for an entire area where there is a good view in all directions." Among the more than 200 photographs in Prospect are buildings by some of the titans of contemporary architecture, such as Norman Foster, Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Zaha Hadid and Renzo Piano.
