Most wonderful diversity: How global architecture of today heads for tomorrow

Nearly exactly ten years after the publication of the Atlas of World Architecture,
this new follow-up publication reviews the last architectural decade by
means of current exemplary buildings from all continents. Not only have
building tasks, techniques and styles changed greatly in the last
decade, but the world has transformed, which is significantly reflected
in global building culture. Conversion and sustainability have gained
significantly in importance, and great innovative architecture has
emerged in new regions.

The most diverse projects from temporary
exhibition halls to mega airports are compiled and vividly presented in
concise texts, accompanied by images and drawings. Contemporary Architecture. Masterpieces around the World
is published as a new reference work that reflects the exciting
diversity and remarkable achievements of current architecture worldwide.
A particular focus is once again on presenting previously unknown
masterpieces alongside the well-known highlights of today's world of
construction.
