ArchitectureWeek Description
The curtain wall — a nonbearing wall attached to a building's structural frame like a curtain made of metal or, more likely glass — is an omnipresent feature of contemporary architecture. Variations of pattern and color, transparency, and opacity offer the architect almost limitless design possibilities. This book documents through construction details and other drawings the exemplary curtain wall design of Cesar Pelli & Associates.

Also available — Selected Architecture Posters and Prints
