"Quality, durability and beauty, these are the attributes that have given metal its great appeal. Inspired by the unique and differentiated characteristics of metal, architects and designers have created buildings that are both elegant and dynamic. Richly illustrated with photographs and architectural plans, "Metal Magic" features around 70 outstanding projects by world-famous architects such as Frank Gehry, Toyo Ito or Renzo Piano and innovative work by younger architects. It focuses on modern high-tech buildings in aluminium and steel as well as on new ways of using and presenting classical materials such as copper and zinc"--Back of book.
