Aprašymas

The 13th installment in the acclaimed series on GMP's complete architectural works

The latest monograph in the monographic series on the great German architecture company Gerkan, Marg and Partners looks at its architectural works of the past decade. Fifty projects from 2011 to 2015 are discussed, accompanied by full-bleed images. The projects include the seat of the Vietnamese National Assembly; the Tianjin Cultural Center in Eastern China; the stadiums built or converted for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil; and Pier A-West at Frankfurt Airport. The completed works demonstrate the open-minded and conscientious approach of GMP; a vast range of scale and typology are represented, and cultural contexts are thoroughly considered.
GMP is an international architectural company based in Hamburg, Germany. The company was founded in 1965 by Meinhard von Gerkan and Volkwin Marg. It is one of the few practices that takes responsibility for a project from its conceptualization through to its interior design. The firm has overseen over 500 projects in 23 countries, creating airports, soccer stadiums and cultural buildings. Although the projects differ in their function, they are all informed by the Vitruvian ideals of solidity, longevity and beauty.
