(H/B) ARCHITECTURE NOW! (VOL. 9)

Παρουσίαση

"The latest buildings around the Globe - Brazil to Burkina Faso":
"Architecture Now! 9" includes works in Amsterdam or Inner Mongolia by architects as famous as Zaha Hadid and Jean Nouvel, or as little known to the general public as Carla Juagaba from Brazil. Small ephemeral buildings like the BMW Guggenheim Lab by Atelier Bow-Wow are included, as well as houses, movie theaters, fashion boutiques, and even an Opera Village in Burkina Faso. Wine and dine with Pritkzer Prize winner Thom Mayne of Morphosis; climb to the top of the Orbit, symbol of the 2012 London Olympics by artist Anish Kapoor and engineer Cecil Balmond; travel "Beyond Infinity" in a virtual environment created in Shanghai by French designer and artist Serge Salat. This is architecture. Now.
For anyone interested in the Zeitgeist and building design in the 21st century, the Architecture Now! series is an essential work of reference. Easy-to-navigate illustrated A-Z entries include current and recent projects, biographies, contact information, and websites.
Philip Jodidio (born 1954) studied art history and economics at Harvard, and edited Connaissance ties Arts for over 20 years. His books include "Taschen's Architecture Now!" series and monographs on Tadao Ando, Norman Foster, Richard Meier, Jean Nouvel, and Zaha Hadid. He is internationally renowned as one of the most popular writers on the subject of architecture. (From the publisher)
