Casa da Música, Porto, Portugal | Rem Koolhaas

Completed in 2005 by OMA, the Casa da Música lands as a faceted concrete monolith on the Rotunda da Boavista. Cut like a diamond, it holds two auditoriums inside a single stone volume, a concert hall that performs as boldly on the outside as it does within.

The arch: anatomy of a curve.

Ten plates on how arches work and how they are drawn. The anatomy of the round arch, keystone, voussoirs, impost and springing, then the whole family: semicircular, pointed, horseshoe, ogee, lancet, trefoil and parabolic, and the vaults they generate, from barrel to stellar.

Xinglong Lake Children's Art Center, Chengdu, China | REL ARCHITECTS

Completed in 2022 on the shore of Xinglong Lake, this children's art center takes its language from Malevich and Suprematism: a pure white base for innocence, red interiors for imagination, a blue roof for the sky. Two blocks for exhibition and office sit on a ring-shaped plaza dotted with circles, opening toward the lake.

CCTV Headquarters, Beijing, China | Rem Koolhaas

Completed in 2012 by OMA, the CCTV Headquarters fuses two leaning towers into a single 234-meter loop, a radical rethinking of the skyscraper that turns the tower into a three-dimensional campus for China's state broadcaster.

Cardboard Cathedral, Christchurch, New Zealand | Shigeru Ban

After the 2011 earthquake destroyed the city's cathedral, Shigeru Ban built this one from 98 cardboard tubes with timber frames and a translucent skin. A triangular facade of salvaged stained glass closes the form. Temporary in name, monumental in spirit.

The section: architecture's x-ray.

Plans show layout, facades show faces, but only the section reveals how a building truly works. It cuts through floors to expose structure, circulation, light, and the relationship between spaces, inside and out.

Master the section, and you master the building.

CopenHill, Copenhagen, Denmark | BIG

A power plant you can ski down. BIG's waste-to-energy plant burns the city's waste for clean energy and gives its roof back to the public: ski slopes, hiking trails and one of the world's tallest climbing walls.
