Das Anknüpfen an Traditionen ist keine Rückwärtswendung, sondern verleiht einer gemeinsamen Identität neue Dynamik – diese Nachricht sollen die Bauten aus dem österreichischen Architekturbüro Ortner & Ortner vermitteln. Mit dem Museumsquartier Wien, dem Schiffbau Zürich und der Bibliothek Dresden stellt das Buch drei international bedeutsame Kulturbauten ins Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit.
