Summary

This book offers an exceptional chronological journey through more than 500 essential works in the global history of architecture. Far from focusing on specific countries and regions, it is organized chronologically so that all cultures and civilizations can converge through their architectural legacies. This innovative approach encourages an understanding of the connections, contrasts and mutual influences in the architecture of different cultures. In addition, each work includes a complete description of its context and most relevant features, and is accompanied by graphics, including maps, photographs and illustrations by the famous master of architectural drawing Francis DK Ching.
