Summary:
If past centuries belonged to Europe and much of the last century has been dominated by America, then now it is China’s turn. For decades, the nation has experienced unprecedented economic growth, and it managed to evade the West’s economic recession. It has gained a significant economic presence in nearly every part of the world. Yet China is now in the midst of an economic slowdown, which impacts its architecture, urban planning, and infrastructure, both at home and abroad. Nanne de Ru and Hans Ibelings undertake a closer examination of this process, with reports from Canada, Portugal, Angola, South Africa, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, and Central and South America.

Although modern architectures constituted only a small percentage of the total building production in Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama, they hold in these countries an evident symbolic significance. Such buildings functioned as models for the desired societal, economic, and cultural changes, or as aspirational placeholders for a future state of modernity. With contributions by Mauricio Quirós Pacheco, Andrés Fernández, Hans Ibelings, Gloria Grimaldi, Sandra Gutiérrez, Martín Majewsky, and others.

Summary:
There are few architects who are as adept as the Dutch architect Jacq. de Brouwer at creating such powerful architecture with such economy of means. His work exemplifies a rare purity. The work of De Brouwer stands outside the main currents in Dutch architecture, in which there is an over-emphasis on the production of seductive superficies. From the Dutch perspective his approach to architecture is remarkably unfashionable, perhaps even old-fashioned, while in a European context there are architects such as Cruz & Ortiz and Peter Zumthor who occupy similar positions. The abstraction of De Brouwers architecture means that his work is both unruly and intriguing. In his work he cuts to the essential core with determination and precision. He banishes all distraction, whether it be the trends and fashions in the profession, or the interference in the environment for which he is designing. This monograph provides a chronological overview of the most important works created by De Brouwer since the mid-1980s.
