Description
The Shenzhen Architectural Guide offers an in-depth exploration of the city's unique architectural landscape. This comprehensive atlas features over 150 buildings and locations that showcase the physical transformation of modern China's most famous Special Economic Zone. Shenzhen, founded in 1978, is a city built at rapid pace, driven by its 'Speed' and propelled into the future without connection to the past. The guide introduces readers to this kaleidoscopic architecture through bilingual coordinates and geodata, also referencing the city's political history and cultural geography. By capturing state-of-the-art works before the Covid-19 crisis, this book provides a snapshot of Shenzhen's current architectural scene, which will soon be transformed once again.
