Renzo Piano
The mechanics of lightness. The wide-ranging career of the Italian virtuoso. "The array of buildings by Renzo Piano is staggering in scope and comprehensive in the diversity of scale, material, and form. He is truly an architect whose sensibilities represent the widest range of this and earlier centuries." Such was the description of Renzo Piano given by the Pritzker Prize jury citation as they bestowed the prestigious award on him in 1998. Whereas some architects have a signature style, what sets Piano apart is that he seeks simply to apply a coherent set of ideas to new projects in extraordinarily different ways

KAHN LOUIS
Choć architekt Louis Isidore Kahn (1901-1974), którego monografię w serii „Basic Architecture Series” wydało kolońskie wydawnictwo Taschen, późno rozpoczął swą karierę, parę zaprojektowanych przez niego budynków stało się synonimem prawdziwej doskonałości i perfekcji.
HADID COMPLETE WORKS 1979 2009
HADID COMPLETE WORKS 1979-2009 Zaha Hadid jest jedną z najbardziej znanych architektek świata. Urodziła się w Bagdadzie, kształciła Anglii, gdzie później powstała jej pracowania. Przez wiele lat, pomimo zdobywanych nagród i przychylności krytyki, nie mogła zrealizować swoich prac. Niektórzy mówili nawet, że są niemożliwe do zrealizowania. W ostatniej dekadzie jednak wiele z nich powstało, m.in.: Centrum Sztuki Współczesnej Rosenthal w Cincinnati, Centrum Naukowe Phaeno w Wolfsburgu w Niemczech, czy budynek BMW w Lipsku. Te śmiałe i futurystyczne projekty przyniosły jej międzynarodową sławę - dziś Hadid należy do elity świata architektury.
GAUDI - THE COMPLETE BUILDINGS
Anyone who visits Barcelona today will come across the works of Antoni Gaudí—the architect who has attracted art-lovers from all over the world to Spain. It was here, in the capital of Catalonia, that the famous master of architecture produced nearly all of his works, including villas for the well-to-do bourgeoisie, the expansive Güell Park (which today is open to the public), and the famous church designed in honour of the Holy Family—a project which was begun over 100 years ago and has yet to be completed. Antoni Gaudí's life was full of contradictions.
