New York: Architecture & Design

Editorial Reviews Book Description New York is as dynamic a city as any in the world, ever changing and always, it seems, in the process of re-inventing itself. This is no less true of its architecture than it is of its people. Because it is a world city that attracts talent from every corner of the earth, its buildings during the last fifteen years have been conceived and designed by a multicultural pantheon of architects. Whether Philippe Starck's hotel interior renovations, OMA's Prada store, Taniguchi's MOMA addition or the many projects built by distinguished American architects, this little guide provides a concise overview for anyone interested in the architecture of the city. From the Publisher A new series of authoritative pocket AND (Architecture aNd Design) Guides.

Each flexi-bound CD-sized volume provides tourists and professionals alike with an overview of notable urban architecture and design during the last fifteen years. Sixty buildings are profiled in four sections:

· See: residential and office buildings
· Stay: hotels
· Go: restaurants, bars, clubs, sports and fitness
· Shop: shop design

Easy to use and attractively designed with thirty four-color, two page spreads, each corresponding to a single building, these little gems will be a must-have item for any traveler.
