BOOK PRESENTATION: Best of Austria. Architektur Architecture 2008_2009
in German
Following the major success of the first volume in this series of publications, a second ‘Best of’ Austrian architecture is now ready for presentation. The book introduces about 175 projects as well as those people who were awarded architecture prizes in the years 2008 and 2009. Initiated by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education, Arts and Culture and published by the Architekturzentrum Wien in a bilingual edition (German/English), it includes a comprehensive index of the architecture awards as well as an essay by Henrieta Moravcíková that examines the Austrian architectural landscape from the outside.
