Dominique Perrault: Opere Recenti

Dominique Perrault rose to architectural stardom at a very young age thanks to his victory in the competition for the Bibliothèque Nationale de France in Paris, and he continues to be one of the most experimental and provocative architects on the international scene. This volume takes a critical look at his work over the past decade, beginning with a work considered a pivotal watershed in Perrault's design career: the velodrome and the Olympic swimming pool in Berlin. This series of designed and partially built works points to a new direction in his architectural research, his experimentation with innovative materials, and his impact on contemporary debate.
