Expect the Unexpected: Luis Vidal + Architects

內容簡介

內容簡介 Expect the unexpected, as leading architect Luis Vidal and renowned writer Philip Jodidio provide valuable insight into some of Vidal's most distinctive and innovative architecture. Spanish architect Luis Vidal is renowned as one of the world's leading airport designers. But airports are just one typology of Vidal's broad range of large-scale architectural projects. Expect the Unexpected: Luis Vidal + Architects provides extraordinary insight into the work of Vidal and his studio and showcases fourteen projects that have become a world reference in architecture, design, and construction. This beautifully presented monograph features stunning photographs and detailed plans and diagrams. Renowned writer and international architecture expert Philip Jodidio eloquently narrates the story of each project, which includes airports, urban buildings, hospitals, and educational and cultural centers. Among the selected works are the award-winning Terminal 2 (The Queen's Terminal) at Heathrow Airport in London, Matta Sur Community Center in Santiago de Chile, and Loyola University Campus in Seville. The volume provides insight into Vidal's careful selection of materials and interest in signature colors, such as prismatic red for the Boston Logan International Airport, and demonstrates his commitment to energy-efficient solutions and design. Expect the Unexpected also features an intensely personal endeavor for Vidal--a private residence that encapsulates much of the thinking that has made his work so successful across the world.
