The best-selling series of Architecture Now! celebrates its tenth edition with a neat new format and thematic organisation. The book brings together the most remarkable new construction work from all over the world into one definitive overview of the latest trends in architectural practice. From Frank O. Gehry's shining Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris to Zaha Hadid's curving Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, more than 70 international projects are arranged into five tabbed sections: Residential, Commercial and Public, Education, Research, Culture, and Leisure. Across these core categories, the selection process works to celebrate contemporary architecture in both its innovation and its eclecticism, and to profile the work not only of "starchitects" but also of rising talents such as Tatiana Bilbao (Mexico), Sou Fujimoto (Japan), or the young team from Chile, Pezo von Ellrichshausen.

Excellent review of numerous new architects working around the world. Fabulous photos and drawings of amazing buildings. The tri-lingual aspect makes it somewhat bulky and, unfortunately, the English text is in blue and somewhat harder to read than either the French or German.

The author of this book has done a fine job of showcasing recent modern architectural projects of interest to the general population, as well as to architects and structural engineers working in the profession. I am a structural engineer, and I purchased the book because two of my friends, and one of their projects, are featured in the book. I also happened to work on that paticular project, and was interested in having a published record of the project along with my own project files. The book is well written, has wonderful photographs, and is a fine addition to the genre of "coffee table architecture books". Mr. Jodidio is to be commended for writing this book.

Decent condition. Overall good purchase.

great book

Very good collection to own. It has a little bit of the work of many great architects around the world.
