Synopsis "Shanghai"

Shanghai: From Water Towns to Vertical SkiesA photographic journey through a city shaped by water, history, and architectural transformation. Through the lens of architect and photographer Augusto H. Martínez Paredes, the book moves from the intimate spaces of traditional water towns to the monumental skyline of contemporary Shanghai.Water towns, temples, and gardensThe journey begins in Zhujiajiao, where stone bridges, canals, timber buildings, and waterfront streets reveal a landscape built around the rhythms of water. Buddhist temples and classical gardens invite a closer look at carved woodwork, terracotta roofs, protective figures, and enclosed courtyards-places where architecture creates space for contemplation.From tree-lined avenues to vertical skiesThe streets and buildings of the former French Concession reveal another layer of Shanghai's character. Their façades, human scale, and everyday surroundings contrast with Pudong's soaring towers. Along the Bund, historic waterfront architecture faces the modern skyline across the Huangpu River, bringing different periods of the city's development into a single view.A city seen through its detailsBroad cityscapes meet close architectural studies: bridges and reflections, roof tiles and ornamental carvings, temple gates and garden walls, skyscrapers and illuminated streets. Accompanying texts offer context and invite readers to notice the materials, spatial relationships, and daily life that give each place its character. Read more
