Andrew Bromberg, of global architecture and design practice Aedas,
was born and raised in the Rocky Mountains of the United States and
now lives and works in Asia. He is a leading light in the design of
cutting-edge skyscrapers and large-scale development projects that
consider cities not just as collections of buildings but as
human-made landscapes shaped by social and economic forces as
gradual or as abrupt as the erosions, accretions, uplifts and
explosions that shape the natural world. Now inhabiting the craggy
mixture of natural and human-made structures that define Hong Kong,
Bromberg has long modelled his work on his knowledge of nature and
his understanding of tectonic forces, both natural and human.
Drawing on a series of conversations and exploratory walks in major
Asian cities - including Singapore and Ghuangzou - architecture
critic Aaron Betsky reveals how Bromberg visualizes his settings
and locates his designs within the complex and dynamic contexts in
which they appear. Interspersed amid these urban reflections is a
largely visual presentation of over twenty of Bromberg's most
exciting recent projects across Asia and the Middle East. Together
these comprise a monograph/manifesto that offers a singular vision
for the cities that will shape our future world.
