Synopsis "Modern Architecture a-z "

With more than 280 entries, this architectural A-Z, now part of our Bibliotheca Universalis series, offers an indispensable overview of the key players in the creation of modern space. From the period spanning the 19th to the 21st century, pioneering architects are featured with a portrait, concise biography, as well as a description of her or his important work.Like a bespoke global architecture tour, you'll travel from Manhattan skyscrapers to a Japanese concert hall, from Gaudí's Palau Güell in Barcelona to Lina Bo Bardi's sports and leisure center in a former factory site in São Paulo. You'll take in Gio Ponti's colored geometries, Zaha Hadid's free-flowing futurism, the luminous interiors of SANAA, and Charles Rennie Mackintosh's unique blend of Scottish tradition and elegant japonisme. The book's A to Z entries also cover groups, movements, and styles to position these leading individual architects within broader building trends across time and geography, including International Style, Bauhaus, De Stijl, and much more. With illustrations including some of the best architectural photography of the modern era, this is a comprehensive resource for any architecture professional, student, or devotee.About the seriesBibliotheca Universalis -- Compact cultural companions celebrating the eclectic TASCHEN universe!

TASCHEN es una editorial alemana fundada en 1980 por Benedikt Taschen, reconocida internacionalmente por democratizar los libros de arte, fotografía, arquitectura, cine y diseño con ediciones visualmente impactantes y precios más accesibles que los tradicionales volúmenes de colección. Desde sus inicios en Colonia, la editorial apostó por combinar alta calidad gráfica con una mirada amplia sobre la cultura visual, publicando desde monografías de artistas clásicos hasta estudios sobre cultura pop, erotismo, publicidad y cine. Su catálogo se volvió inconfundible por el gran formato, el cuidado diseño editorial y esas portadas que parecen exigir una mesa enorme solo para poder abrirlas cómodamente.

Entre sus títulos más conocidos se encuentra Arquitectura Moderna de la A a la Z, una extensa guía ilustrada sobre figuras, movimientos y obras fundamentales de la arquitectura contemporánea. TASCHEN también ha publicado libros dedicados a Salvador Dalí, Stanley Kubrick, David Hockney, manga, fotografía de moda y diseño industrial, consolidando un catálogo extremadamente diverso. La editorial ha logrado equilibrar investigación, atractivo visual y difusión cultural masiva, convirtiéndose en una referencia imprescindible para lectores interesados en artes visuales y coleccionismo editorial.
