Architecture Now! 8

Today's starchitects. Currents in architecture around the world. "Architecture Now!" has become the international reference for information on what is happening in the world of contemporary architecture. Volume 8 reviews new and exiting projects completed and under construction in the whole world. No style, no building type is ignored, making "Architecture Now! 8" is a true compendium of what anybody interested in buildings today needs to know. From well-known figures such as Zaha Hadid, Ryue Nishizawa of SANAA fame and Thom Mayne of Morphosis, to rising stars like Joshua Prince-Ramus (REX) and Sou Fujimoto and on to less-known architects who are the "stars" of tomorrow like the Indians of Studio Mumbai, the Norwegian Todd Saunders, the Spaniards Nieto Sobejano, and the Colombian Giancarlo Mazzanti, or Chinese architects like Wang Shu and Zhu Xiaofeng, they are all here and many more as well.
