L'ouvrage présente tous les types de bâtiments possibles, depuis les plus petites maisons individuelles ou l abribus, jusqu aux projets de construction à grande échelle tels que musées, usines ou aéroports, dans le monde entier. Pour chaque projet, l'Atlas présente les données clés : maître d ouvrage, superficie, coût de la construction et, nouveauté par rapport au précédent atlas, les coordonnées précises permettant de localiser le bâtiment via Google Earth ®.
