Since its inception in 1977, the Aga Khan Award for Architecture has recognised almost 100 projects that have set new standards of excellence in architecture, planning, conservation and landscape design. Cutting a swathe across the globe from west Africa to southeast Asia, each project selected for the 2007 Award is illustrated with detailed drawings, specially commissioned photographs and concise descriptions. An introductory essay by Homi Bhabha is accompanied by texts from Omar Akbar, Homa Farjadi, Sahel Al-Hiyari, Shirazeh Houshiary, Esa Mohamed, Mohsen Mostafavi, Farshid Moussavi, Modjtaba Sadria, Brigitte Shim, Billie Tsien and Ken Yeang. The nine projects include an urban square in Beirut, an embassy in Addis Ababa, a sustainable school house in rural Bangladesh and a mud-brick market in Burkina Faso. To mark the thirtieth year of the Award, this publication also includes a historical overview of winning projects, seminars and events through the years.

Today's urban environments face ever-increasing flows of human movement, natural disasters, and iterative economic crises. In response, city planning has developed innovative, hybrid forms that go beyond conventional ways of planning. Integrating practices of other disciplines, planning has become increasingly intricate and at the same time dependent on the cross fertilization of data, ideas, and actions across economies, societies, and geographies. This richly illustrated book of edited essays aims at introducing new approaches towards the planning of cities across the world, including Central and South America, Europe, the Middle East, and East Asia. Covering demographically, politically, culturally, and socially diverse regions, it not only examines the use of conventional planning tools, but also explores more experimental and cross-disciplinary approaches of urban planning.
