40 Architects around 40

TASCHEN's 25th anniversary - Special edition!


Who are the Norman Fosters, Richard Meiers, and Tadao Andos of tomorrow? Discover the next generation of designers who are already starting to shape the future of architecture for the new millennium, redefining the relationships between culture, environment, structure, and space. Taking their inspiration from visions of the future and traces of the past, these are the people who are defining the aesthetics of tomorrow's architecture.

Some of the architects featured, such as Shigeru Ban of Japan and Ben van Berkel from Holland, have already gained critical acclaim for their work. The rest, such as Marc Barani and Aranda Pigem Vilalta, are waiting in the wings.

This 25th anniversary edition is a special edition of 40 under 40!
