Description

Thisbook features 15 architects with significant work in France from the firmly established to the up-and-coming with the focus on how they have contributed to very recent architecture. Entries include contact information and short biographies in addition to copiously illustrated descriptions of the architects' or firms' most significant recent projects.

Architects featured include Odile Decq, Manuelle Gautrand, Jakob + MacFarlane, Jean Nouvel, Valode & Pistre and many others. Buildings include Edouard Francois' flowerpot fun in the Paris Tower Flower, the sleek Avignon TGV station by Duthilleul, Gautrand's transparent, polygonally charged Citroen factory and 25 others, illustrated with photos, plans and trilingual text (English, French, German).
