About this title

Synopsis

Das Londoner Architekturb�ro Wilkinson Eyre Architects, 1983 gegr�ndet, macht seit den 1990er Jahren durch eine Vielzahl innovativer und phantasievoller Bauten auf sich aufmerksam. Ein Schwerpunkt bilden spektakul�re und konstruktiv anspruchsvolle Br�cken, zu deren bekanntesten und preisgekr�nten die Gateshead Millennium Bridge (2001) und die Floral Street Bridge (2003) geh�ren. Das B�ro hat eine Vielzahl von Preisen gewonnen, darunter zweimal den RIBA Stirling Prize. Mit der Teilnahme an Wettbewerben f�r den Guangzhou West Tower in China und die Tensegrity Bridge in Washington DC, USA, stellt das B�ro seine zunehmend internationale Pr�senz unter Beweis.

Das Buch dokumentiert etwa 15 Bauten und Projekte ausf�hrlich, wobei die Einbindung in den jeweiligen Kontext von besonderer Bedeutung ist. Zu den vorgestellten Projekten geh�ren u.a. das Magna Centre in Rotherham, UK, das National Waterfront Museum Swansea, UK, den Guangzhou West Tower, China und die Gatwick Airbridge, UK.

Store Description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
