Couverture rigide. Condition: Très bon. Abondamment illustré de photos en couleurs, dans le texte et hors-texte. « Ce beau livre dresse une liste presque exhaustive des grands architectes internationaux même si une fois encore les architectes anglo-saxons et japonais sont un peu trop mis à l'honneur. Chacun est traité en quelques pages à l'esthétique sobre. Plutôt que de présenter un patchwork de divers travaux, l'ouvrage se concentre sur deux ou trois projets exemplaires qu'il documente abondamment. De très courts textes signalent la mouvance de ces architectes. De plus, l'iconographie surprend par son souci de clarté, par sa volonté pédagogique de présenter aux lecteurs les agencements intérieurs des constructions contemporaines. Enfin, fait suffisamment rare pour qu'il soit noté, cet ouvrage nous livre les coordonnées (adresse, fax, site Internet) de chaque agence afin que chacun puisse, s'il le désire, en apprendre un peu plus sur ces réalisations.» Damien Sausset.
