With nearly 300 entries, Arquitectura Moderna A-Z offers an invaluable overview of the key figures in the creation of modern space. It features the pioneering architects of the 19th and 20th centuries with a portrait, a brief biography, and a description of their most important works.

As if on a tailor-made journey to explore architecture around the world, you will discover the skyscrapers of Manhattan, a Japanese concert hall, the Palau Güell by Antoni Gaudí in Barcelona, or the leisure and sports center by Lina Bo Bardi in a former factory in São Paulo. You will delve into the colorful geometries of Gio Ponti, the fluid futurism of Zaha Hadid, the luminous interiors of SANAA, and the unique blend of Scottish tradition and elegant Japonism of Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

The alphabetically ordered entries in the book also cover groups, movements, and styles to place these key architects in time and space within broader architectural trends such as the International Style, Bauhaus, and De Stijl, among many others. With illustrations including some of the best architectural photographs of the modern era, this is a comprehensive reference work for professionals, students, or architecture enthusiasts.
