Description

This book presents a selection of the most remarkable skyscrapers built in the last decade by renowned architects from all over the world. Architects such as Norman Foster, Jean Nouvel, Massimiliano Fuksas, and many others have contributed to this work. The buildings represent the architectural debate of the new millennium where the main goal is no longer the maximum height of the building, but the pursuit of sustainable technical and design solutions to provide better quality of life for their inhabitants and increased harmony between the building and the city. The book includes examples of actual buildings and projects still under construction in cities like New York, Sydney, Barcelona, Frankfurt, Tokyo, and Shanghai.
