Modern skyscrapers are often inseparably associated with images of the cities that host them: the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Gherkin in London, the Empire State Building in New York, and so on. And while skyscrapers emerge in large numbers, only the most beautiful of them become symbols of the city that hosts them. This book presents Vasily Klyukin's projects: towers and residential buildings that have not found their home yet, but some of them will be built in the future and become architectural symbols of our age.
Vasily Klyukin was born in Moscow in 1976. After getting a degree in economics, he became interested in the design and architecture of skyscrapers.
