TSCHUMI, BERNARD
Event-Cities 4 is the latest in the Event-Cities series from Bernard Tschumi, documenting recent built and theoretical projects in the context of his envolving views on architecture, urbanism, and design.
In this collection, Tschumi introduces the "concept-form": a concept generating a form, or a form generating a concept, so that one reinforces the other. The concept may be programmatic, technological, or social. The form may be singular or multiple dimensions of programs and their evolution over time, and drive the projects featured in this book.
Highlights include a media zone in Abu Dhabi, a museum and visitors´center in Alésia, France, a pedestrian bridge in La Roche-sur-Yon, France, and master plan for a sprawling new city in the Dominican Republic.
