Architecture and Technology explores technology's contribution to the design of a more comfortable and efficient built environment.

The more than 200 photographs of buildings and outdoor spaces included in the book all stress the significance of our interaction with the places in which we work and live. Detailed text accompanying each project further highlights the astounding impact technology has made on our environments and lives.

In addition to the 200 plus color photographs, there are numerous line drawings and floor plans included to illustrate this unique book.

Architecture and Technology emphasizes innovative designs that use materials, building techniques, or ideas developed through or inspired by technology.
