Description

Since the 1990s the British architectural ?rm Wilkinson Eyre Architects has been garnering accolades—including two Stirling Prizes—for their innovative and fanciful designs. Best known for such spectacular and structurally ambitious bridges as London's South Quay Footbridge and Floral Street Bridge, the ?rm has recently broadened the scope of its activities with competition entries for the Guangzhou Twin Towers in China and Mumbai Tower in India. Exploring Boundaries offers detailed documentation of twenty buildings and projects including the Tensegrity Bridge in Washington, D.C., and the National Waterfront Museum in Swansea, Wales.
