Amsterdam by Sabina Marreiros
One of a series of authoritative pocket guides introduced last year, this guide highlights several of the city's newest and most interesting governmental, residential and commercial buildings by architects such as Steven Holl, Renzo Piano and Kees van der Valk, and also showcases distinctive interior design. Included are short profiles of more than seventy buildings and colour photographs to accompany each. This is an indispensable little guide in an attractively designed package that comes with a site map for easy use by tourists and professionals alike.
