With more than 280 entries, this architectural A-Z, now part of our
Bibliotheca Universalis series, offers an indispensable overview of
the key players in the creation of modern space. From the period
spanning the 19th to the 21st century, pioneering architects are
featured with a portrait, concise biography, as well as a
description of her or his important work. Like a bespoke global
architecture tour, you'll travel from Manhattan skyscrapers to a
Japanese concert hall, from Gaudi's Palau Guell in Barcelona to
Lina Bo Bardi's sports and leisure center in a former factory site
in Sao Paulo. You'll take in Gio Ponti's colored geometries, Zaha
Hadid's free-flowing futurism, the luminous interiors of SANAA, and
Charles Rennie Mackintosh's unique blend of Scottish tradition and
elegant japonisme. The book's A to Z entries also cover groups,
movements, and styles to position these leading individual
architects within broader building trends across time and
geography, including International Style, Bauhaus, De Stijl, and
much more. With illustrations including some of the best
architectural photography of the modern era, this is a
comprehensive resource for any architecture professional, student,
or devotee. About the series Bibliotheca Universalis - Compact
cultural companions celebrating the eclectic TASCHEN universe!
