This book, 'New Projects. Architecture' introduces the reader to all the latest tendencies in modern architecture and the design styles that are going to come to the forefront in the new millennium. The author offers a selection of the preeminent constructions all over the world: public spaces, transport infrastructure and even private homes. Captivating photos and detailed plans give you a fascinating insight into the architect's aims.
Some currents felt worldwide have made an impact on the design of these buildings. They are the fruit of the process of globalization that has taken architecture over during the eighties and nineties. Two generations of creators have been included in 'Recent Works. Architecture.'
Among the buildings presented, all of them emblematic representatives of their style, are the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur (Malasia) designed by Cesar Pelli, the Normandy Bridge conceived by the Frenchman Charles Levigne, and the Le Semaphore Auditorium, the inspiration of Christian Drevet.
Besides the conditioning factors of the surroundings, each architect reflects in their work a unique and personal vision which has been materialized into a beautiful building or an imposing structure.
Design whims have not reduced the functionality of the buildings. They are used as auditoriums, offices, restaurants, golf clubs, shopping malls and government offices. Many of them have changed the urban landscape of their cities, becoming visible examples of what the architecture of the future will be like. 'Recent Works. Architecture' has brought all these works together so that art and design lovers can contemplate the world's greatest construction projects.
