review:

'The Future of Architecture in 100 Buildings' shows us the cutting edge of buildings from around the globe. My preview copy was only 14 pages long, but it was a tantalizing look at what this book contains.



The text of the book asks a series of questions like 'Can we live in the harshest place on earth?' or 'Can a skyscraper be built in a day?' The book then gives a photo and location of a building answering these particular questions. Not only are the buildings I saw in my preview copy functional, but they were very beautiful as well. The buildings and ideas are innovative and imaginative.



I wish the publishing company had let me view a table of contents, if there is one available. Regardless, it's a gorgeous book. I'd like to see the entire book. Striking and bold.



I received a review copy of this ebook from Simon & Schuster and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
