"From houses, factories, bridges, and apartment blocks to chapels, motorways, and memorials, this pictorial history celebrates 180 iconic New Zealand buildings, sites, and neighborhoods, designed by many of the nation's most famous architects. The 46 contributing writers document each building's design, construction, context, and history, assisted by historic and contemporary photographs and floor plans. Representing a unique and precious part of New Zealand's history, this showcase reveals an acclimatized, vernacular style singularly adapted to suit the New Zealand climate and conditions."--Jacket.
