Publisher's Synopsis
In New Architecture, author Francisco Asensio presents a survey of the most significant work by leading architects from around the world since the turn of the 21st century. Included here are the most remarkable examples of public and private architecture of our time, including houses, bridges, cultural centers and parks, and skyscrapers. In his authoritative text, the author examines the design concept of each structure, as well as the building's relationship to climate and culture. New Architecture is lavishly illustrated with photographs of exteriors and interiors as well as floor plans and concept drawings. More than a mere survey, New Architecture is a comprehensive guide to the interaction between modern architecture and its surroundings.
