4.0 out of 5 stars If only one..., January 19, 2009

Laplanche Xavier (France) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Container Architecture (Paperback)

A first short technical part and a real interesting architectural production from pedestrian bridge to composite (container + other)buildings. Museum, housing (private & condo), industrial, shops...
You're searching for "containerised" architecture, then it's a "must have" book.
