Calatrava Bridges by Alexander Tzonis
Over the last two decades, Santiago Calatrava has revolutionized the idea of bridges from utilitarian, mechanical instruments into elegant objects that combine technology with poetry to enhance the sense of place and community of their settings. This presentation of thirty of the master architect's celebrated bridges around the world features his iconic creations alongside never-before-published projects, all shown off to stunning effect in crisp colour photography and clear line drawings.
Alexander Tzonis is professor of architectural theory at the Technical University of Delft. He is the author of Santiago Calatrava: The Poetics of Movement and Le Cotbusler: The Poetics of Machine and Metaphor, both published by Thames & Hudson. Rebeca Caso Donadei conducts research in the Design Knowledge Systems Centre in the Department of Architecture at the University of Delft.
