Bernard Tschumi / Zenith De Rouen

Source Books in Architecture is a new series focusing on new single works by significant architects. Sponsored by Ohio State University, the series reveals the architectural motivations and techniques behind each building. The Source Books document each work with sketches, models, renderings, working drawings, and photographs at a level of detail that allows complete and careful study of the project from its conception to the completion of design and construction of the musical score to the architect''s symphony.

The graphic component is accompanied by commentary from the architect and critics to further explore both the technical and cultural content of the work. The intensity and timelessness of Bernard Tschumi/Zenith de Rouen provides a detailed presentation of Bernard Tschumi''s recently completed concert hall and exhibition complex in Rouen, France.
