Title: Bernard Tschumi, Zénith de Rouen
First published: 2003
Description: "Architect Bernard Tschumi is internationally regarded as one of the boldest thinkers in contemporary architecture as well as one of its most inventive formgivers. Translating his bold visions into built structure has always been challenging, and nowhere is this more evident than in the Zenith de Rouen, his recently completed concert hall and exhibition complex in Rouen, France. As one of the most accomplished and seductive of Tschumi's built projects, the Zenith de Rouen stands as a tour-de-force of design, technique, and construction.".

"Including an exhaustive presentation of sketches, models, computer renderings, working drawings, and photographs of the construction process and the finished work, this book documents the project at a level of detail that allows complete and careful study from its conception to its completion. This in-depth graphic presentation is accompanied by commentaries from the architect, as well as series editors Jeffery Kipnis and Todd Gannon, that further explore both the cultural and technical significance of this important building."--BOOK JACKET.
