Kathy Borrus, the author of the wonderful travel tome, "The Fearless Shopper," has done it again. One Thousand Buildings of Paris is an endlessly fascinating romp through the architecture, history, and culture of Paris. A must for all adventurers, artists, architects, and academics, the book is both an art enthusiast's dream and a valuable reference for planning Parisian sightseeing. All in all, One Thousand Buildings of Paris is a one-of-a-kind photographic compendium and a true treat.
Kathy Borrus' One Thousand Buildings Of Paris isn't for the casual tourist of Paris, but is designed for the avid enthusiast of both the city and its architectural wonders. Recommended for both the architectural art library and the in-depth travel collection, this volume cover the range of Paris architectural history and style, with photographers Jorg Brockmann and James Driscoll outlining commercial, residential, and public spaces alike. An outstanding and in-depth architectural survey.
This book is as wonderful as One Thousand Buildings of New York. Paris, like New York, is just full of amazing buildings, each one more interesting than the next. This book is comprehensive and covers an incredible amount of ground. Each building comes with a nice B&W image, along with a short, but well researched synopsis. I find myself going back to this book time and time again, just to admire the wonderful architecture. I recommend this book to anyone with a love for Paris, or just good books.
