Atlas of World Architecture (KTE0042)

Atlas of World Architecture – Atlas Of New Century Architecture

Buildings are now on the drawing board and they are nothing like the places we may recall from our childhood. New materials and new technologies are reshaping the way we build. And at the same time, many architects and designers are also drawing upon ancient materials and building techniques but interpret them in modern ways. With the advanced development of economy and diversity of social life as well as increased sensitivity to the environment, architecture design is far from the primitive forms and styles; it is on the way to be comfortable, economical and rustically beautiful. The book, Atlas Of New Century Architecture , with 250 projects selected, is a detailed and comprehensive portrayal of the best and newest architecture projects from 6 continents of more than 50 countries. Designers can be inspired a lot to search a balance between the overwhelmingly globalised trend and the increasingly personalised feature.

It offers readers a visual feast with the collection of world’s most classic architecture projects and is categorised into 10 parts, including Cultural, Commercial, Hospital, Educational, Corporate, Residential, Hotel, Transportation, Recreational and Complex architecture. Each project is illustrated with real photos, plans and text. In addition, each geographic region is distinguished by a different colour–code. We firmly believe and hope it will serve as a source of pleasure and inspiration to all its readers.

Featured with its timeliness, globalisation, regionalisation, and professionalisation it will help readers from all over the world to find inspiration and approach new materials and the cultural heritage.
