The limitations of the Modernist palette have long been recognized
and contemporary architects are looking to the ancient values of
stone to give new expression to their ideas. Its permanence is
increasingly used to express a sense of civic stability or ground
the fluid forms of contemporary architecture. This paperback
version of the book New Stone Architecture, originally published in
2003, explores the special role of stone in a timely reassessment
of the ideas that underpin today's stone renaissance. The
introduction uncovers the expressive possibilities of stone,
describes the new technologies which make the new forms possible
and offers an interpretation based on the author's technical and
theoretical understanding of material themes. This is followed by
33 case studies from around the world. Architects featured include
Michael Hopkins, Kengo Kuma and Renzo Piano.
