★探索世界上最迷人的歷史與當代建築，從古代金字塔到高科技摩天大樓，本書是你不可或缺的建築導覽指南。
《改變歷史的偉大建築》帶你概覽從古代至今的建築史，引領你參觀超過50座風格迥異的建築傑作，包括吉薩大金字塔、沙特爾大教堂、雪梨歌劇院，以及畢爾包古根漢美術館。每座建築都經過視覺化分析，CGI剖面圖揭開屋頂與牆面，展示建築的結構骨幹，特寫照片則聚焦於風格細節。
本書以真正全球化的視角，探索歷史與現代建築，教你如何「閱讀」建築，判斷其建造年代。多立克柱與愛奧尼柱有何不同？飛扶壁的原理是什麼？為何混凝土陽台看起來像懸浮在空中？你將在書中找到答案，並發掘一連串關於贊助人、建築師與工匠的精彩故事──正是他們讓這些建築傑作得以誕生。
Explore the world's most fascinating historical and contemporary buildings, from ancient pyramids to hi-tech skyscrapers, in this essential guide to architecture.
Buildings that Changed History gives you an overview of the history of architecture from the ancient world to the present day. It takes you on guided tours of more than 50 masterpieces of every architectural style, from the Great Pyramid of Giza to Chartres Cathedral, Sydney Opera House, and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. Each building is analysed visually. CGI cutaway artworks peel away roofs and walls to reveal the bones of the building, and close-up photographs home in on details of style.
Buildings that Changed History takes a truly global look at both historical and contemporary architecture. It shows you how to "read" buildings and work out when they were constructed. What is the difference between a Doric and an Ionic column? How does a flying buttress work? Why do concrete balconies appear to float in thin air? You will find the answers here, along with a wealth of intriguing stories about the patrons, builders, and architects who made each architectural masterpiece possible.
Reading Buildings that Changed History is like being taken on a personal tour by a guide who shows you exactly what to look at.
