Surmount & dilute : [Book] the current predicament Volume 1 / executive editor, Li Shun

Global Propeties "at head of cover"

Surmount and Dilute (1) presents both a collection of innovative architectural design and a thought-provoking challenge on the question of the function and purpose of high-rise living in today's society; these buildings not only represent a clever solution to the increasing demand for space in ever-expanding cities but also challenge urban planners to engage in the human experience of pleasurable and sustainable living accommodation. Architecture that wants to feel good, that demands positive attention and provides a creative and unique blueprint for the future; these designs are way beyond concrete, they are bright and exciting and are as modern and technologically up-to-date as the constantly changing streets they inhabit.
