Case Study: Facades

This is a brilliantly illustrated review showing how architects exploit a building's facade. The facade represents a building's outer skin, and it is through this outer skin and the choice of materials, textures, and tones used in its composition, that architects can endow a building with a particular character. "Case Study: Facades" is a superbly illustrated volume that provides a detailed look at some of the most creative and original concepts in the field. Filled with full-colour photography and detailed architectural plans and drawings, alongside discussions on how the architects and designer approached each project, this is must-have resource.
