The Architecture of Suzhou provides a thorough exploration of Suzhou's architecture and urban development through a detailed survey of key historical remains and contemporary creations in the city including houses, gardens, public buildings, bridges, streets and other structures. The book reveals how Suzhou's unique architectural and urban qualities continue to influence contemporary practice, maintaining the so-called "Suzhou Style", and representing a remarkable process of identity-building. It positions Suzhou within the context of China's rapid growth since the 1980s, where the city tells a compelling narrative of the urban relationship between the millennia-old cultural heritage and the booming modern economy.The early part of the book charts the old city's growth over centuries.
