Von Gerkan, Marg und Partner--stylized as gmp--is an international architectural firm founded by German designers Meinhard von Gerkan (born 1935) and Volkwin Marg (born 1936) in Hamburg. Since the firm's conception in 1965, gmp has grown into an internationally renowned architectural practice committed to new explorations of sustainability and utility in design.
This volume details buildings designed and constructed by the firm between 2007 and 2011, such as three sports stadiums built in South Africa for the 2010 soccer world championships, major innovations to the Hamburg Airport, and cultural centers throughout China. Richly illustrated with full-color documentation of 65 projects, the twelfth monograph from gmp represents the firm's dialectical approach to a modern architecture that revises itself constantly in accordance with the development of society yet still maintains a utilitarian simplicity at the core of its design.At the heart of every product lies a unique story, driven by our passion for quality and innovation. Each item enhances your everyday life and sparks joy.
