The Cite de la Musique in Paris (1984-1995) brought Christian de Portzamparc international fame. This complex appeals through the sculptured character of the individual buildings, the love of detail obvious throughout, and the subtle combination of materials. This monograph documents some of the most important recent buildings and projects of the Paris architect. In addition, the urban works of Portzamparc are highlighted, illustrated by projects.
