paperback. Condition: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. A guide to recent architecture The fine and innovative buildings produced in Switzerland over the past two decades have placed the country firmly in the avant-garde of international architecture. Extensively published work by renowned architects such as Mario Botta, Herzog & de Meuron and Peter Zumthor have already become standards on the architectural grand tour, but there are also numerous projects by younger, lesser-known offices waiting to be discovered. This compact, vibrantly detailed guide to contemporary architecture in Switzerland traces a path through projects ranging from remote thermal baths to vaulted banks. It will appeal to aficionados of the Neue Einfachheit and the Tendenza as well as to the accidental tourist with a penchant for architecture. Maya Huber has a degree in Literature and Art History and teaches at the University of Zurich. Thomas Hildebrand studied at the Architectural Association in London and is co-founder of blue architects in Amsterdam and Zurich. Seller Inventory # 240812007
