This collection of case studies combines the highly acclaimed volumes The Building Envelope and Connections placing the details of good modern buildings in context with each other and explains the relationship between them. Thus the authors provide an essential database for designers working in the field of large-scale construction. The buildings are analysed on a comparative basis, and the examples and their respective details are assessed in such a way as to illustrate the full range of workable alternatives available to the designer and architect through advances in current building technology.
