<br/><br/> Architecture tells the story of the world's most incredible buildings, from the ancient world to the present day. It takes a closer look at the beautiful details, principal elements, and decorative features of every architectural style, from China's Temple of Heaven and the Great Mosque of Damascus, to the Guggenheim museum and the London Olympic Velodrome. Architecture offers a truly worldwide look at historical and contemporary buildings, with photography, cross-sections, and unique CGI artwork. Now fully updated, this new edition covers contemporary architecture and green buildings.
