Nine case studies provide the foundation for a thorough exploration of the relevant cultural-historical, sociopolitical, climatic and demographic aspects. Questions concerning the region’s reciprocal relationship with modernist architecture in the period from 1945 to 1973 are investigated through the biographies of selected buildings and building complexes from Iraq, Lebanon, Kuwait, Syria, Palestine, Jordan, Egypt and Morocco.\n\nTexts, contemporary images, architectural drawings and archival material are used to document the process from commissioning and design through to completion and building use.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 3868597239\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.3868597239.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Arbid, George|Oswalt, Philipp\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Perfect\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in acceptable condition and may have highlighting and or writing throughout.
