Convention centers come in a range of forms, shapes, sizes and contexts. They can form part of a hotel, an airport, a skyscraper, a mountain-chalet or stand completely on their own. This wide range allows for an exciting variety of stunning architectural and design possibilities that in combination with state-of-the-art technology make a convention center a successful enterprise. The criterion for the project selection for this volume is to cover the entire spectrum and provide a well-founded overview of the current trends. The buildings selected are by acknowledged specialists for convention centers as well as architects, who approach the attractive planning task from different and unbiased perspectives."- Contents: Preface : Come together, right now -- Stand alone : La Llotja / Mecanoo architecten -- RAI Elicium / Benthem Crouwel Architekten -- Congress Center, Zlín / Eva Jiricna Architects/AI-Design -- Convention Center, Taichung / MAD Architects -- Poleczki Conference Center / Jasinski Kruszewski Architekci -- Harpa / Henning Larsen Architects -- Congress Saalfelden / Atelier 3 Architekten Hartl + Heugenhauser -- Seminar Building Gut Siggen / Auer+Weber+Assoziierte -- Baiyun International Convention Center / Buro II & Archi+1 -- Morro Jable / Menis Arquitectos -- Congress Center Brdo / Bevk Perović -- Congress Schladming / Riepl Riepl Architekten -- Municipal Congress and Exhibitions Center, Ávila / Francisco Mangado -- Lake Placid Conference Center / The Design Group, James Edgcomb -- Sipopop Congress Center / Tabanlioglu Architects -- Convention Center and Tower, Doha / Murphy, Jahn Architects -- Congress Center, Hangzhou / Peter Ruge Architekten -- Music and Congress Center, Strasbourg / UNStudio -- Concert Hall Jordanek / Menis Arquitectos -- Arade Congress Center / Miguel Arruda Arquitectos Associados -- Centre de Conférence Européenne DCD / Jourdan & Müller, Schemel & Wirtz -- Conference Center Austriamicrosystems / Tinchon -- Congress Center, Interlaken / Dorenbach Architekten, Kunz und Mösch Architekten -- Isfera Palacios de Exposiciones / Guido Cimadomo Arquitectos, Celedonio Garrido Santos -- Conference Center, San Luis Potosí / ZYMA -- Conference Center Tripoli / Tabanlioglu Architects -- Myrtus Convention Center / Ramon Esteve Estudio de Arquitectura -- Conference Center Hohebuch / Schwarz.
