The Atlas of New Architecture is a review of the most significant works around the world in the last five years and a comprehensive guide to the interaction between modern architecture and its surroundings. Here are the most remarkable examples of public and private architecture of our time: residential houses, infrastructures, cultural centres and leisure parks, municipal and corporate buildings and landscapes. The book is thoroughly documented and illustrated with plans, photographs of the interiors and general views and includes a rigorous study of each project's design aesthetics and goals.
