KPF initially distinguished itself through its attention to the most characteristic American building type, the skyscraper. The evolution of the tall tower is a key part of a sustainable paradigm in which individual buildings form part of a larger system of vertical centers linked by horizontal networks of public transportation. These "vertical cities" represent a sustainable model for future development where public transport is encouraged, land is conserved, and energy and water uses are reduced. KPF leads the way, creating enduring architecture with contextual sensitivity, flexibility of use, and care for the environment. KPF has achieved international stature, becoming the first firm to be a member of the United Nations Global Compact. This, the fourth volume of their work, explores their recent buildings in detail. The projects include buildings that have transformed the urban fabric of their respective cities, such as the Roppongi Hills Tower complex in Tokyo and the Shanghai World Financial Center, the tallest skyscraper in Asia. 242809 Kohn, Pedersen Fox (Firm) Public architecture 266558 Designs and plans History 21st century Public architecture 266558 Pictorial works History 21st century Architecture, American. 54089 Pictorial works History 21st century Architectural practice, International 196803 Local Architecture Urbanism. 54081 Local United States lcc 6 NA737.K65 General K62 2012 243075 243075 0 0 lcc 0 0 4 4 33 2014-03-04 amazon 46.26 521768 0 General NA737.K65 K62 2012 91000000036830 2016-05-27 00:00:00 1 56.26 2014-03-04 6
