Within these four decades, the city state on the Arabian Gulf was comprehensively restructured and practically redesigned. Following a first volume with 150 carefully selected exemplary buildings, this second volume features interviews, essays and arguments, as well as transcripts of contemporary publications of these years. The texts from local and international scholars focus on questions regarding the significance and function of the buildings along with the role of individual and corporate protagonists that influenced, defined and created this highly dynamic restructuring process. Furthermore, all aspects are integrated into a wider regional and international context. The contributions are complemented by an extensive array of photographic, layout, and archive materials.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CHItem Height: 260mmItem Length: 206mmItem Weight: 840gAuthor: Ricardo Camacho, Roberto Fabbri, Sara Saragoça SoaresGenre: Architecture & AntiquesRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
