Arquitectura Viva 281- Foster + Partners

This edition highlights two recently completed icons by the firm led by Norman Foster that materialise the British architect's grand ambitions: the JPMorgan Chase Headquarters in New York and the Zayed National Museum in Abu Dhabi. Both carry the signature stamp that makes any of his works unmistakable, however disparate their locations, scales, or programmes. In addition, this issue's dossier looks at the work of ten young Portuguese practices that verify a change of attitude in the country's solid tradition: REDO architects, MESA atelier, Corpo Atelier, Summary, EXPERIMENTAL, Atelier Local, depA architects, Nuno Melo Sousa, ATELIERDACOSTA, and Cabinet.
