Résumé:
Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, Tate Modern is one of the significant architectural projects at the turn of the millennium. Working with the shell of the redundant Bankside Power Station, Herzog & de Meuron have created spaces with a rare affinity for contemporary art. Texts by leading architectural writers describe the finished gallery, the ideas behind it, and the way in which it was designed and built. An exclusive interview with Jacques Herzog and the Tate Director Nicholas Serota presents the philosophy and interchange of ideas that drove this project. The creation of Giles Gilbert Scott's original power station is also described.

Résumé:
We are living in one of the most dramatic periods in modern architectural history: a time when cityscapes are being redrawn on a yearly basis, architects are testing the very idea of what a building is, and whole cities are invented overnight. In this bold and wide-ranging new work, Rowan Moore — former director of the Architecture Foundation, now a leading architecture critic — explores the reasons behind these changes in our built environment, and how they change the way we live in the world. Provocative and personal, iconoclastic and transforming, Why We Build is that rarest of things: a book about architecture that is also, on every page, a book about people — those chosen few who design buildings, and the rest of us, who use them every day.

Résumé:
In an era of brash, expensive, provocative new buildings, critic Rowan Moore argues that emotions — hope, power, sex, our changing relationship to the idea of home — are the most powerful force behind architecture, yesterday and (especially) today.
