A building material that has been around for centuries is now being reintepreted - that material is concrete. Contemporary buildings impressively demonstrate concrete's almost unlimited array of potential applications. Combined with other components its remarkable versatility becomes apparent; thanks to its unique capacity to be moulded it achieves a level of flexibility that surpasses all other construction materials. The latest generation of buildings demonstrates more than ever before just what concrete is capable of. "Concrete Creations" presents a selection of 60 exceptional projects, accompanied by extensive photographic and planning images. The highlights of this book include works by Tadao Ando, Peter Eisenman and Zaha Hadid. Формат: 24 см х 24 см.
