A complete overview of architecture in fiftythree African cities, seen through the eyes and images of one of the worlds leading young architectsEducated in England, David Adjayes lifelong dream was to return to Africa as an architect to document the continents built environment. Over a decade, he tirelessly documented these dynamic, colorful cities, photographing thousands of buildings, sites, and public spaces, and letting each building speak for itself. The result was a stunning sevenvolume work that has become an essential resource for all those interested in the burgeoning continent.The fiftythree cities featured in this remarkable study are grouped according to the terrain in which they are set: the Maghreb (north Africa); Desert; Sahel (the semiarid transitional region between the Sahara and the south); Forest; Savannah and Grassland; and Mountain and Highveld. Each metropolis is illuminated by a concise urban history, maps, and satellite imagery, along with the dozens of photographs Adjaye has taken with an architects eye. This compact edition selects the highlights from over 4,000 buildings and places captured for the initial sevenvolume work. The result is one of the most original, ambitious, and important architectural publications of our time. 700+ photographs in color
