DDC classification: 725.8 Summary: Iconic Storefronts USA is a well researched sampling of some of the most trail-blazing projects in this area. The large full-colour photographs that illustrate each project are complemented by working plans, sketches and explanatory texts by the architects. As new materials become available and new technologies open up a baffling range of surprising new possibilities, an excitingly innovative and extremely active field of architecture has arisen that is redefining entire urban landscapes. These extraordinary possibilities, sometimes of a temporary nature, must be adapted to local building regulations and limited budgets, challenging imaginative design to the limit.
