About this title

Synopsis

This revised and expanded edition of New London Architecture, by renowned architecture writer Kenneth Powell, examines more than 100 different projects that are reshaping modern London. Illustrated in full colour throughout are not just the headline-grabbing public works, such as the British Airways London Eye, the new Jubilee line stations, the Millennium Bridge and interventions at many of the national museums, but also a wide variety of smaller-scale projects that together offer a manifesto for radical change. With illustrations, plans and critical texts of the projects that are combining to reinvigorate London's urban landscape, New London Architecture provides a detailed and authoritative portrait - indispensable to professionals and public alike - of a city vibrantly reinventing itself and avid to embrace the best of the new.
