Architect Bernard Tschumi is internationally regarded as one of the boldest thinkers in contemporary architecture as well as one of its most inventive formgivers. Translating his bold visions into built structure has always been challenging and nowhere is this more evident than in the Zénith de Rouen, his recently completed concert hall and exhibition complex in Rouen, France. As one of the most accomplished and seductive of Tschumi's built projects, the Zénith de Rouen stands as a tour-de-force of design, technique and construction. Including and exhaustive presentation of sketches, models, computer renderings, working drawings and photographs of the construction process and the finished work, this book documents the project at a level of detail that allows complete and careful study from its conception to its completion. This in-depth graphic presentation is accompanied by commentaries from the architect (and others) that further explore both the cultural and technical significance of the important building.
