Description
As global focus turns towards the growing influence and power of the Far East, the architects of Australia are perfectly placed to respond with their own forward-looking visions. This book explores the sixteen most exciting young architectural studios in Australia, and the progressive projects built in Australasia that are winning them global attention. Highly attuned to the growing influence and economies of the Far East, where many of these architects are already working, Australia and the pioneering spirit of its creative community are well-placed to lead the way to the future. This will be an essential publication for the architectural community worldwide.
