Encompassing a superb collection of rare photographs, drawings, and reproductions, this volume unlocks the architectural changes that took place in Doha from urban transition in the 1950s to urban necessity in the 1960s to urban modernity in 1970s. Each decade experienced events that shaped the city’s evolution. The book will also shine a light on the 1960s movement named Qatari Deco. The most iconic buildings will be shown with commentary, provoking nostalgia and wonder in the younger generation, as many have now been demolished. The book is authored by award-winning architect Ibrahim Mohamed Jaidah. It showcases never-before-seen photographs, drawings, and buildings from his private collection and the Arab Engineering Bureau (AEB) archives.

Le Champ-de-Mars a accueilli, longtemps, les événements marquants de l’histoire de France, et, à partir de 1855, les expositions universelles. Au lendemain de celle de 1900, le Champ-de-Mars entame sa mue en quartier résidentiel, autour d’un vaste jardin public. Les architectes de la Belle Époque trouvent ici un exceptionnel terrain d’expression. Style Beaux-arts, éclectisme, historicisme, Art déco livrent, ici, une symphonie architecturale étourdissante. Les abords du site renferment nombre de pépites : les immeubles fantastiques de Jules Lavirotte, un temple de la théosophie (la salle Adyar), l’immeuble les Arums, où l’Art nouveau atteint son paroxysme.
