Great prestigious achievements highlight an ART OF BUILDING, the fruit of the work of brilliant engineers and French companies in the great tradition of guilds, promoting the excellence of gestures and know-how, such as the Mucem in Marseille (architect Rudy Ricciotti), the Louis Vuitton Foundation in the Bois de Boulogne (architect Franck Gehry) or the great Stade de France. The book "The Art of Building" goes beyond the classic framework of architecture books to introduce the public to the wealth of know-how implemented by construction companies. An art book on the construction professions could be shown as the excellence of art workshops: this gives rise to exceptional contemporary achievements. This book will allow us to discover the intelligence and beauty of the gestures of the people who create these buildings and thus bring the architect's designs to life. Richly illustrated, this book with 200 previously unpublished photographs will present these gestures, the collaboration of the construction trades, the complexity of the works, on dozens of prestigious construction sites both in France and internationally. A dizzying epic from the architect's drawing to the delivery of the work!
