Arthur Erickson: Layered Landscapes, produced in conjunction with an exhibition bearing the same name, examines selected drawings of Arthur Erickson from the Canadian Architectural Archives collection. The book contains drawings from 14 projects, a foreword by Kenneth Frampton and essays by Michelangelo Sabatino and Linda Fraser + Geoffrey Simmins.

Erickson was a passionate advocate of cultural awareness and a fervent explorer of human and natural environments.He has brought to his work an understanding of the community of man that, when filtered through his imagination, gives birth to a singular architecture that is in dialogue with the world.
