The future of architecture in 100 buildings / by Marc Kushner ; edited by Jennifer Krichels. - First TED Books hardcover edition. - xi, 152 pages : color illustrations ; 19 cm
A pavilion made from paper. An inflatable concert hall. A building that eats smog. A bridge that grows grapes. This book captures the soaring confidence, the thoughtful intelligence, the futuristic wonder, and at times the sheer whimsy of the world's most inspired and future-looking buildings. As author Mark Kushner explains, 'The future of architecture is not one of any dominant style, but rather a world of constant innovation and experimentation.' Like an architectural cabinet of wonders, the book captures this glorious global diversity. From soaring steel towers to bamboo bungalows; from iconic monuments to ingenious children's playgrounds, each page offers an unexpected glimpse of architecture's potential.
