Summary:
In the post-war decades, Hong Kong architects, many of them having migrated from Mainland China or studied overseas, embraced modern principles when forced to face the problems of housing shortage, mass construction and limited budgets. Although economic efficiencies often prevailed over design, their buildings were rooted in their time and place, reflecting the local climate, social values, materials, technique and use in an often unique and pragmatic fashion. With more than 300 buildings and ensembles documented, the new publication ''Hong Kong modern architecture of the 1950s-1970s'' by Walter Koditek gives a comprehensive overview on the architecture of that transformative period in combining full-page photographs with detailed background information and further b/w images explaining and illustrating the design and history of these buildings.

Summary:
Brutalist architecture is more popular now than ever. This beautifully photographed book looks at Britain’s finest brutalist buildings from the 1950s to the 1970s, featuring imposing and dramatic public buildings—like London’s National Theatre and Liverpool’s Metropolitan Cathedral—along with lesser-known buildings such as Arlington House on Margate’s seafront, as well as houses and flats, shops, markets, town centers, and more. This book provides a fascinating overview of a postwar urban landscape, while an introduction places British brutalism within the context of global events and contemporary world architecture.
