The Story
Paulo Mendes da Rocha is one of the most acclaimed contemporary architects, Pritzker Prize 2006 and RIBA Royal Gold Medal 2017. This book presents the first great work in Europe by the Brazilian architect. It is in Lisbon, in one of the best known and symbolic areas of the city, the district of Belém, that the National Coach Museum is located. Built on the famous site where the Portuguese set sail to travel overseas, the Museum promises to stimulate thought on the relationship between the great city and its buildings, Europe and America, and the very idea of being modern.
The collection Architectural File presents a close look at particular works of some of the world’s greatest architects. Each volume contains an extended photographic essay, a critical interpretation by a respected specialist and an exploratory text by a renowned author from outside the field of architecture, proposing a different view of the project. A selected bibliography, chronology and a fold out poster assembling technical drawings and working details, provide the reader with a decisive insight into the work.
88 pages, 16.5 x 24cm, softcover, monade (Lisbon).
