Clients that would once have turned to large firms have instead hired A-list and Pritzker-Prize-winning architects to design their new stadia. As a result, in cities around the world, stadia are often the most expensive and monumental projects, even becoming icons of identity. By examining a range of exemplary stadia from around the world (built and demolished projects), this book presents for the first time a canon for this building category.

Plus qu’un répertoire de lieux de rêve, c’est une réflexion sur une nouvelle conception de l’hôtellerie : comment l’architecture peut cadrer le paysage, quels détails architecturaux et quels matériaux nous procurent des sensations inoubliables, et un focus sur les gens qui ont pour passion de s’occuper de nous. Nous espérons qu’elle incitera une nouvelle génération d’hôteliers à sortir des stéréotypes de l’hôtellerie de luxe classique.

In the past, public toilets may not have left a good impression due to sanitary and safety concerns. These facilities were usually lacking inclusive design qualities. Toilets should be accessible, comfortable, and anxiety-free for everyone at all times. With this in mind, the project team considered what sort of public toilet would be safe, clean, and comfortable for every user. These are the toilets featured in the film, now renovated to be gender-free and fitted with the latest sanitation equipment.
