The long-awaited fifth volume presents the sixty projects completed between 2002 and 2004 with characteristic attention to detail. In the period covered by this volume, urban planing was a major focus of Herzog & de Meuron's work. These include buildings that have already become contemporary architectural icons, such as the National Stadium in Beijing and the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, but also projects which, though never realised, have influenced the architectural discourse.
