Popis produktu

When many of us think about architecture in China it is usually the overpowering presence of leading Western architects responsible for large city projects that spring to mind. Be that as it may, Chinese architecture is undergoing a startling and massive upsurge. This book presents selected projects of several of the young architectural practices from the Middle Empire. They all hold their own very well alongside the large foreign firms and are making their own contribution to the creation of a modern China. The volume also contains a selection of projects from German architecture agencies which have successfully taken steps in the direction of the East. With the inclusion of a critical essay on the current state of Chinese architecture this title is a refreshing and informed survey.
