This ambitious publication, now revised and expanded, dissects
fifty-five modern masterpieces through specially commissioned
freehand drawings that reveal the principles and details of what
makes a building meaningful and enduring. Covering six continents,
and ranging from residences to opera houses, influential buildings
of the past seven decades are analysed through detailed
consideration of their key characteristics - site and surroundings,
space and massing, programme and circulation, fenestration and use
of natural light - to give an insight into how each design works as
a cohesive whole. Appealing to architects, students and everyone
who appreciates great buildings, The Elements of Modern
Architecture is an essential reference and inspiration for
generations to come.
