Los Angeles to także znakomity reportaż o przestrzeni kontrastów, gdzie sąsiadują ze sobą centra ubóstwa i zamożne zamknięte osiedla, bezdomni i celebryci, apokaliptyczne pogorzeliska i bajeczne plaże, przeludnienie i samotność. Dzięki siedmiu lekcjom Baldwina możemy choć trochę zrozumieć miasto, które każdego dnia wymyśla siebie na nowo.
The latest in this successful series, this book features around 150 of the most important buildings in the history of world architecture - from the pyramids and Parthenon to some of the most significant works by recent architects. The buildings are organized by type - from places of worship and public buildings to houses - and are divided into nine chapters, each with an informative introduction that surveys the history of that type. For each building there are numerous, accurate scale drawings showing a combination of floor plans, elevations and sections as appropriate, all specially redrawn for this book.

Showing off 54 projects by Danish architects, everything in here is brand new, often so new that they are under construction or at the planning stage. The book breaks down into themed chapters, ranging the gamut from housing to museums to offices.

But in the Danish compilations 2 and 3, thereis a greater effort by many of the firms to use advanced rendering technologies to focus on people and their relationships to buildings, rather than on the buildings as art objects in space. The result is to render a fuller Scandinavian regional identity to the work.
