Book Description:
|
An introduction to a style of architecture that has transformed the look both of modern America and of the rest of the world. It shows how Chicago's architects and buildings have constantly pushed the boundaries over the last 150 years, through design innovation and often wholly new and creative use of materials in engineering applications.
