This new monograph celebrates the creative accomplishments of one of the world's most influential architects, Cesar Pelli. The book surveys this extraordinary body of work in terms of the AIA's Gold Medallist's design, architecture, and planning, tracing Pelli's motivation as a leading designer and teacher, and the evolution of his work over the span of half a century. More than 50 projects from around the globe - museums, theatres, offices, laboratories, airports, cultural centres, civic works and master plans - are presented in rich full colour with insights from Pelli that delve into the design and construction of these landmarks from a practice that has thrived for nearly 40 years. This compendium of Pelli's life in architecture offers a unique perspective into this master architect's contribution to contemporary design and building, and its continuing impact on the world's architectural scene. This book is a highly inspirational reference title for those in the architecture, urban planning and design industries.
