Since its inception in 1923, Wembley Stadium has been synonymous with great football, sold-out concerts, and thrilling events. Its rebuilding - completed in 2007 by world-renowned architects Foster + Partners - was one of the most talked-about architectural events of the decade. This book details the planning and reconstruction of the new Wembley, which features a retractable roof supported by an iconic arch, exploring all aspects of the design process, with informative texts and numerous photographs, original sketches, and drawings.
