This book celebrates the work of 30 architecture studios; singular influential forces are featured alongside emerging talents. Some have been widely awarded and published. They have offices spread out across the world, promoting their ideals and visions, and creating works that have the power of suggestion and that inspire emotion. The participating architects-through some of their most notable works-offer their own theoretical positions, technical innovations and design contributions to the built world. Each, in its particular way, thrives to offer design solutions that lead to society's progress and well-being. Innovate, anticipate future challenges, and develop long-term visions are some of the design goals that respond to the contemporary ideas of comfort, usability, sustainability and quality. Architecture Here & Now assembles a rich variety of design approaches guided by different factors.
