Architecture now! Restaurants & bars

On the menu. This title features cutting edge architecture and bold design. Whether the challenge is merely arranging furniture in a simple space, or an ambitious structural project, restaurants and bars are the sites of some of our most expressive architecture. More ephemeral than larger facilities or entire buildings, they are especially apt to capture the mood of the times. From a skyscraper rooftop in Bangkok to a beachfront in Brazil, here are places where design, architecture, food, and drink come together in inspiring, multi-sensory, encounters. With this latest addition to the enormously successful Architecture Now! series, discover the most exciting examples of restaurant and bar architecture and design. Whether strikingly minimalist or extravagantly baroque, step into spaces where good taste is the raison d'etre.
