Besides the Biblioteque Nationale de France his design career features works of international importance, such as ther Berlin velodrome and Olympic swimming pool, where he masterfully succeeded in blending the architectural structures with the surrounding natural environment. In the field of town planning Perrault has conceived designs for Nantes, Bordeaux, Berlin and Caen; he also designs furniture and researches new building materials.
With lavish illustrations of works and projects from 1981- 2000, and the concise critical essay by Laurent Stadler make this book an invaluable tool for discovering and understanding the work of one of the leading figures of contemporary French architecture.
