Contemporary Architecture in Arabia

The Arabian peninsula, particularly the wealthy emirates on the northeast coast, is one of the world’s premier areas of construction growth. For several decades, building projects of ever-increasing scale have been realized, turning the region into a prime tourist destination for the wealthy and a magnet for foreign investment. This title presents over 50 of the newest construction projects in the Gulf region, all by German architects and including buildings still under construction. With neat plans and images it shows the prodigious scope of the ongoing development of this region.
