Book Description | Unbuilt Masterworks of the 21st Century presents 100 of the best projects to have been proposed since the turn of the millennium by the world's greatest architects, from UN Studio, Foreign Office Architects, Diller Scofidio + Renfro and Zaha Hadid to such up-and-coming stars as J. Mayer H. Architects and Asymptote. The book is a treasure trove of as-yet untried design ideas and the ultimate inspiration for forward-thinking professionals and anyone interested in contemporary architecture. |
Editorial Review | Massive and generously illustrated compendium of 100 unbuilt projects is an entertaining idea-generator. A fascinating, profusely illustrated gander at the extraordinary structures designed for international competitions. Those who fear otherworldly creativity digital design has wrought need to look to this graveyard of what might have been to praise the recession's tightened-purse strings. |
