Norman Foster is a globally recognized figure in architecture. His practice has created projects around the world, many of which have profoundly transformed the cities and landscapes in which they reside. This new monograph, published in partnership with the Centre Pompidou, presents more than 80 of Foster's key projects, including Creek Vean (1966), an early house in Cornwall, and the world's first terminal for space travel, Spaceport America (2014), built in the desert landscape of New Mexico. Drawings, sketches, photographs and insightful text explore projects that include furniture, houses, schools, museums, headquarters, skyscrapers, urban masterplans, vehicles, high-speed rail stations and airports. The book also features an essay by Fřďric Migayrou, curator of the major Centre Pompidou exhibition on Foster; a biography by celebrated architectural critic, Philip Jodidio; and an extensive interview with Foster himself. Foster has also contributed an anthology of six analytical texts, written across the broad span of his career. -- Provided by publisher
