Many of the buildings were constructed throughout Asia – yet how to build in the cultural environment and on the proper scale in China and Vietnam, for example? What sort of knowledge can be transferred from construction work in Europe – and how much do construction projects, in their sociologically and culturally familiar contexts, benefit from the experienced gained there? Various principles, conditions and times determine the context in which gmp operates. The extract included herein from the gmp portfolio draws parallels between current domestic and international projects, while supplemental references to earlier buildings offer a look back at the office's development UR - https://doi.org/10.11129/9783955533205 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783955533205 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783955533205/original ER -
