London: On the Road Architecture Guides

This publication is the second
edition of the London Architecture Guide and features new insights and
new itineraries. The architectural and cultural expansion of the largest
city in Western Europe is constantly evolving, confirming year after
year its multi-ethnic and innovative soul. The city presents itself as a
set of extraordinary buildings, created by internationally renowned
architects, which coexist harmoniously, unmistakably characterising its
skyline. The itineraries featured include about 80 architectural works,
both historical and contemporary, which are fully illustrated with
images, drawings and descriptions, and are marked on the front of the
map with a reference number corresponding to the section in the book and
the icon on the back of the map. The guide also provides information
about museums, libraries, institutions, movie theatres, restaurants and
gathering places.
