A centuries-spanning celebration of the timeless architectural staple

Discover 180 diverse and fascinating examples of works made with brick - from the Ziggurat of Ur to contemporary masterpieces by Mies van der Rohe and Kazuyo - in this illustrated homage to the ubiquitous red block.

Brick highlights a surprising selection of structures dating from 3,000 BCE to the present day. Readers flipping through the vividly illustrated pages will enjoy a world tour of innovative, inspirational buildings from the most important architects of the past 100 years, including Alvar Aalto, Antoni Gaudi, Eero Saarinen, Frank Lloyd Wright, Frank Gehry, J rn Utzon, Louis Kahn, and Ludwig Mies Van der Rohe. Each project is presented with a carefully selected image accompanied by an engaging and informative extended caption.

This smart, stylish survey also includes an introductory essay by art historian and BBC television presenter Dan Cruickshank.
