Light on the Hill, building the Constitutional Court of South Africa - Bronwyn Law-Viljoen (David Krut Publishing, 2006)

This is quite simply a beautiful book. Its 171 pages are filled with truly stunning photographs of the court from every possible angle, showing off what must be one of the world's most spectacular buildings. The photo​graphs capture the many diverse spaces and complementary, warm materials used, as well as the lush textures in the garden. Sprinkled with comments from judges of the court, architects, builders and artisans involved in its construction, the book leaves you feeling almost a part of the planning and construction process.
