Preface
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 fortable, economical and rustically beautiful.
The book, Atlas Of New Century Architecture , with 250 projects selected, is a
detailed prehensive 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 plex
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.
