Features: Here are distinctive glass buildings, where modern technology and commercial appeal have made them the mainstream of globalization. It seems less important where they are built, as the key is that they have long become a totem of modern civilization, worshipped by urban dwellers today. Here are also European-style palaces with proportions, showcasing power and wealth while expressing the differences in the value recognition of Eastern and Western civilizations. Here are solemn museums, not only responsible for displaying national history but also for creating a cultural salon for today's cities. Here are also the majestic flavors of the Western Regions, learning wisdom from ethnic architecture and drawing strength from the grand mountains and waters. This book is an excellent collection of architectural design works by the China Academy of Building Research, featuring thirty-four different architectural schemes. These works showcase the unique taste of the designers and demonstrate the global trend of architectural design, making them highly valuable for reference.
