From Los Angeles to London, and Beijing to Bilbao, cities around the world have sprouted 'iconic' buildings by celebrity architects that compete for attention both on the skyline and in the media. But in recent years, much criticism of extreme 'gestural' buildings, with their often-exaggerated forms, has emerged. For the first time, Architecture's Evil Empire looks at the way in which today's cult of trademark architectural individualism stretches far beyond
these isolated outrages, ultimately embracing the entire built environment.
