Аннотация:
From the celebrated author of Houses of God, Architecture for Architects and many other popular titles, comes this book on New York's most celebrated living architects, the latest new-generation practitioners. It also offers an exploration of the legacy of the original 'Five Architects' — Features an exclusive foreword by Kristen Richards. Young architects in New York are finding new ways to practice, experimenting with cutting-edge materials, and expressing changing values in their work. This book profiles the work of 12 firms making a name in the city that never sleeps — the latest of a new generation of practitioners that are being challenged by a new economy. The book explores the legacy of New York's original Five Architects — Peter Eisenman, Michael Graves, Charles Gwathmey, John Hejduk and Richard Meier — and how these new firms are following that history and departing from it. Find out what some of the most creative young architects in New York are up to.
