The latest in the Review series featuring contemporary buildings in Tashkent, Genoa, Tbilisi, and Casablanca.

This highly anticipated new volume in the Review series documents some two hundred largely unpublished buildings in Tashkent, Genoa, Tbilisi, and Casablanca. These cities experienced rapid development during the twentieth century, each offering its unique response to Modernism. Rather than merely providing a historical survey, this book uncovers the underlying logic of these cities' urban fabric through an examination of their prevalent built heritage.

Over four years, architects Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein, together with teaching staff and students of architecture and design at ETH Zurich's Department of Architecture, analyzed the featured structures to offer a wide-ranging array of original typological solutions for contemporary architecture and urban design. Each example is documented with an image, site, and floor plans; axonometric projection; key data; and a brief description. Concise essays by authors originating from the four cities explore their historical evolution. An introductory text by Emanuel Christ, Victoria Easton, and Christoph Gantenbein relates the case studies to the theoretical framework of type and typology. A photo essay with color images capturing the urban atmosphere of the places rounds of this volume.
