During the 1990s, a number of architects in many countries have been developing a new, pioneering but buildable architecture for the onset of the 21st century. The 35 whose work is presented here are among the most original and talented. All reflect the spirit of our times. More than 170 color pictures of more than 60 projects reveal a pluralist architecture that augurs well for the future.

Architecture Of The Future surveys the work of 35 prominent architects, including Lebbeus Woods, Cop Himmelblau, Franklin D. Israel, Eric Owen Moss, Frank O. Gehry, Emilio Ambasz, Morphosis, Asymptote Architecture, and Diller & Scofidio. Architecture Of The Future presents everything from blueprint to scale model to super structure in a straightforward manner. In addition to over 180 full-color photographs and drawings, Architecture Of The Future features seven texts by major contemporary architects: Emilio Ambasz, Peter Cook, Itsuko Hasegawa, Daniel Libeskind, Jean Nouvel, Sir Richard Rogers, and Bernard Tschumi. With an introduction and a foreword that sets the various architects' projects in context, Architecture Of The Future is an excellent book of reference that brings a unique vision two the architecture of the 21st Century. Architecture Of The Future is a well-researched, meticulously written, beautifully presented, highly-deserving contribution to any personal, academic, or public architectural studies collection. -- Midwest Book Review

Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
