Popis

Norman Foster. Networks offers a rare first-person insight into the ideas, influences, and connections that have shaped one of the world’s greatest architects. Penned and curated by Foster himself, it brings together eight immersive essays in which he explores architecture not as a professional pursuit, but a nexus of passions, disciplines, and lived experience.

In Roots, Foster examines his modest start in Manchester alongside his lifelong fascination with aviation, tracing the formative threads that underpin his work. Flight emerges as both obsession and metaphor, informing his pursuit of lightness, efficiency, and technical elegance. His deep attachment to the Alpine landscape—where he lives in a self-designed home of the future—reveals how place, climate, and topography continue to shape his thinking.

Nature, Art, and Making are explored as essential creative partners to his architectural practice. The essays on Place and Cities widen the lens, considering memory, identity, and civic life, and how buildings collectively shape the public realm. Illustrated with nearly 1,000 photographs, sketches, artworks, film stills, and other cultural references, this extraordinary book is both a visual atlas and an intellectual framework—a self-exploration of the thinking behind such iconic works as Apple Park in Cupertino, the Reichstag in Berlin, the British Museum’s Great Court in London, the Millau Viaduct in France, and the Zayed National Museum in Abu Dhabi.

It brings into focus the ideas, curiosities, and connections that define this colossus of modern architecture.
