Biblioteca A-72 BROMBERG NEW
The Asian boom of the last decade created an unprecedented arena for
architectural adventure and experimentation, an environment in which
Andrew Bromberg immersed himself and thrived. Aedas was at the epicenter
of this ferment, in part due to its significant presence in Hong Kong
preceding the boom, and then in large part due to the furious energy and
passion that Bromberg brought to the firm when he joined in 2002.
New Architecture in the Emerging World chronicles the diverse range of
projects designed by Andrew Bromberg for Aedas between 2002 and 2010. It
highlights the exceptional design versatility and ingenuity Bromberg
displayed in order to address Asia’s extremely varied clients, sites,
architectural programmes, schedules and cultural parameters.
In tracing the intertwined fortunes of Bromberg, Aedas and the Asian
continent at a time when the world’s economic centre of gravity
appeared, at least for a while, to have permanently tilted to the east,
New Architecture in the Emerging World provides an unparalleled survey
of the phantasmagorical experience it turned out to be.
As an architect striving for innovation and vision, Andrew Bromberg has
led the design on numerous award-winning projects throughout the world.
Andrew has over eighteen years of professional experience in
architecture, with the last ten of them based in Hong Kong. Andrew is
lead designer for Aedas, recognized for his ability to conceptualize and
realize complex designs within a wide range of projects.
