Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Hardcover. Zustand: As New. 304 pages. The buildings around us have always been designed to influence the way we see , think and move.The Great Builders celebrates the careers of 40 great fi gures whose engineering skills have been crucial to their success. Illustrated w ith over 200 photographs, plans and drawings, the book brings these remarkable c haracters and their work to life, revealing the technical ingenuity and aestheti c flair that define some of the world's most iconic structures.Here is Br unelleschi, who built the 'unbuildable' dome of Florence Cathedral; Sinan, a Chr istian engineer who became chief architect to the Ottoman court; Joseph Paxton, scribbling down a design for the Crystal Palace, London, on a piece of blotting paper; and James Bogardus, an early American evangelist of the opportunities off ered by cast-iron architecture.Rapid advances in industrial production in spired experiments with new materials and techniques, gradually allowing a whole new architecture to emerge: reinforced concrete, plate glass and steel were cen tral to the creations of Le Corbusier, Auguste Perret and Mies van der Rohe, for instance; and, in the High-Tech architecture of the present day - represented b y Norman Foster, Frank Gehry and Santiago Calatrava, among others - computer-aid ed design has seemingly tested the boundaries of the possible.
