description: Vertigo takes a leading role in bringing to light the emerging architectural landscape of the industrialized world. The ten projects explored include Lake Vegas in Nevada, the new Reichstag and Jewish Museum in Berlin, the Tate Gallery in London, Hong Kong Airport, Ontario Mills in Los Angeles, and the Millenium Dome in London. Edited by Rowan Moore, with essays by Jacques Herzog, Paul Davies, Aaron Betsky and others. In contrast to the bland future-gazing seen to date, Vertigo sets out to evoke tangible urban experiences, not futuristic utopias.
