Roger Taillibert, réalisations

The first volume of a series of books dedicated to architect Roger Taillibert, this superbly illustrated monograph recalls the many different aspects of his work. During a career that spans over four decades and features major achievements such as the Montreal Olympic complex or the Parc des Princes stadium in Paris, he proved a visionary who explored and redefined the very notion of large-scale volumes and stood unafraid to stir controversy by using thin shells, moveable textile roofs and prefabricated elements. A must-read for all architecture lovers.
