New Architecture in Africa...

Found a great book today whilst trying to get some inspiration at the library, called New Architecture in Africa, published in 1963 by Thames and Hudson, London. The book shows the development of the modern movement in Africa, really expressing how form and function can produce some amazing buildings within the 'context' of Africa. Buildings that really responds to climate and enviroment. Some of the building in Nigeria, Ghana etc just blew my mind.

I can't locate it anyway to buy, except here, New Architecture in African, but i think it's the original German version,

I photocopied the entire book....just in case.
