《伟大的玻璃建筑》(Great Glass Buildings)[PDF]

在 《伟大的玻璃建筑》中，Peter和Jennifer展示了50个近年的具有示范性的玻璃建筑，这些建筑探索了一些关于玻璃在建筑中的特质，奥妙和吸引力 的理论。通过扮演不同的角色，包括外裹物，轻量外壳，传导物和绝热体，玻璃作为一种建筑力量以及新现代主义的符号在90年代重新出现。玻璃制造和构建技术 的进步以及结构玻璃装配，固定设施，玻璃包裹和防水连接的出现，使得过去那些雄心勃勃的梦想得以成真。

Product Description
In Great Glass Buildings , Peter and Jennifer Hyatt present fifty exemplary modern projects that explore a number of theories about the nature, mystique and attraction of glass in the architecture of recent years. Variously performing roles that include giftwrap, lightweight armour, transmitter and insulator, glass began its re-emergence as an architectural force during the 1990s, as a symbol of new modernism. Advances in glass-making and construction technology and the advent of structural glazing, fixing systems, glass coatings and waterproof connections have transformed the ambitious dreams of the past into reality. Including projects by Foster and Partners, Murphy Jahn, Santiago Calatrava, Shigeru Ban, Renzo Piano and many others, this book reveals the complex nature of glass in today's architecture.
