Towering structures are oftentimes the subject of admiration only for their sheer height or skyline silhouette, and oftentimes criticized for their poor environmental performance (and not without justification). This book aims to change that impression by showing innovations that are particular to this group of tall buildings, in addition to generally good architectural design and engineering prowess.
The CTBUH’s Awards series draws from the multi-disciplinary expertise of the practitioners directly involved in bringing these buildings to life.
