Cinema Builders outlines the history of the cinema as a quintessentially modern building type, which embodies fantasy and escape in another realm. It examines the relationship of the development of film to the architecture of the cinema itself; the<br /> advent of sound and the replacement of the theatre as an urban attraction. Cinema Builders charts the metamorphosis of cinema architecture from traditional theatre structures to a new breed of cinema building, among the first to use modernistic<br /> architectural languages and abandon historicism.<br /><br /> The buildings featured throughout include work by architects such as Coop Himmelb(l)au, Bryan Avery, Jon Jerde, Fumihko Maki, Behnisch, Behnisch and Partner.<br /><br /> - All-encompassing worldwide study of cinema styles<br /> - Prestigious architects showcase their work<br /> - Beautifully illustrated in colour and black and white throughout
