The Blueprint tells the true stories behind the world's greatest structures. Each episode, host Nirob takes one building, one bridge, or one feat of engineering — the Great Pyramid, the dome of the…
Pantheon, the Eiffel Tower, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Panama Canal, the Burj Khalifa — and rebuilds it: the architects and engineers who designed it, the labour and invention that raised it, the disasters and doubts it survived, and the world it shaped.
From the arenas of Rome to the cathedrals of the Middle Ages, from the skyscraper race to the unfinished cathedral of Gaudí, from dams that tamed rivers to towers that pierce the sky, The Blueprint is about the astonishing human will to build — how structures are designed, how they stand, and why they say more about a civilisation than any document.
