Contemporary Architecture in China : Towards A Critical Pragmatism, Hardback Book

Contemporary Architecture in China : Towards A Critical Pragmatism Hardback

Hardback

Description

Architectural exhibition is an important aspect in the study and transmission of architectural culture.

The academic thoughts and design styles that influence the trends of global architecture are all established through one or a series of important architectural exhibitions.

This book is produced based on the GSD (Harvard Graduate School of Design) autumn exhibition: 'Towards a Critical Pragmatism: Contemporary Chinese Architecture'.

It reveals a unique perspective of contemporary Chinese architecture by showcasing 60 works from 60 contemporary architects within five thematic categories: cultural, residential, regeneration, rural, and digital.

The selected architects attempt to maintain, from the earliest moments of the design process to its finished outcome, a certain level of critical thinking and quality.

It is a record of the continuous evolution and growth of contemporary Chinese architecture and hopes to open up a new avenue from which to encourage further conversation regarding both the present and future state of China's architecture culture.
