Una fascinante nueva versión de la arquitectura de Adjaye, que explora su enfoque de cinco materiales de construcción a través de sus proyectos.David Adjaye es uno de los arquitectos más solicitados en la actualidad, conocido por su cuidadosa interpretación de los espacios públicos.

Para entenderlo como arquitecto, debes mirar sus proyectos a través de la lente del material, una consideración crucial en su práctica. Organizado en cinco secciones: piedra/hormigón, madera, metal, vidrio y tierra apisonada, Alchemy reinventa la monografía tradicional del arquitecto al examinar la importancia del material en la arquitectura, un estudio vital para Adjaye y su proceso de diseño.

En 2021, David Adjaye recibió la Medalla de oro RIBA y estuvo entre los siete líderes mundiales en recibir un Premio de impacto TIME100 en 2022. El libro presenta más de 30 proyectos públicos, comerciales y residenciales en todo el mundo, desde su Concrete Garden de 2001 en Londres a la Galería Amoako Boafo en Accra, Ghana, construida con tierra apisonada y terminada en 2022.
