This volume traces the development of the work of the Basle architects Herzog and de Meuron. Much emphasis is placed on the initial design processes, made tangible through plans and sketches. Finished buildings are presented in great detail. Spanning the years 1989 to 1991, it covers 32 projects, including the well-known copper-clad signal box and locomotive depot, the repository for the Goetz art collection, and the Pfaffenholz sports centre in St Louis. The urban analyses emerging from the large-scale study, "Basel, a City in the Making?", form a focal point in the volume, as do the master plans for the university campus at Dijon and the town sector of Sils Cuncas in the upper Engadine. ©Amazon.co.uk
