Summary:
Completed in 2019, the Swatch and Omega Campus in Biel (Bienne), Switzerland, is a magnificent example of technology, design, and environmental sustainability working in concert to create a space that promotes the health of users and the planet. This book illustrates every aspect of the project, including drawings, plans, and numerous interior and exterior photographs. Pritzker Prize-winning architect Shigeru Ban has experienced firsthand the trauma of natural disasters, which he has addressed in numerous emergency-relief projects. With the Swatch and Omega campus, Ban demonstrates how sustainable architecture can benefit industry as well, and why he promotes timber as the planet's only truly renewable resource. Philip Jodidio introduces readers to the buildings' ingenious and cutting-edge features--a serpentine, cocoon-like facade that echoes the playful elements of the Swatch brand; a gridshell roof structure consisting of thousands of precisely interlocking timber pieces. The Omega buildings with their clean straight lines are equally innovative and express the contrast between the two related brands. A feat of forward-thinking architecture, this corporate headquarters represents a benchmark for future building projects around the world.

An outdoor care retreat outside Oslo provides space where visitors can benefit from the therapeutic qualities of nature; a residence in Tottori, Japan, adapts with the changing seasons; a treehouse in Cape Town uses cylindrical towers that are elevated on stilts, offering views among the trees; and in Quebec, three geodesic domes were designed as part of an eco-tourism project to highlight the area's natural beauty. Each house is paired with photographs and plans.

Durant plus de soixante-dix ans de carrière, il a conçu près de 600 bâtiments, des gratte-ciel en mouvement de Bab-Ezzouar en Algérie au chef-d'oeuvre qu'il réalisa pour son pays, Brasília. Le travail de Niemeyer emprunte aux formes simplifiées du modernisme pour leur insuffler une grâce fluide. Loin de toute sévérité austère, ses constructions ondulent sous l'effet de leurs lignes sinueuses et envoûtantes. À l'image de bâtiments tels que le musée d'art contemporain Niterói, l'Edifício Copan ou la cathédrale de Brasília, il a apporté cambrure et rondeur à la jungle bétonnée des villes. Pour Brasília, la capitale fédérale futuriste, il a réalisé près de la totalité des édifices publics et est ainsi devenu inséparable de l'image du Brésil dans le monde. À travers de riches illustrations et des mises en lumière de certains moments de sa prolifique carrière, cet ouvrage présente la vision unique de Niemeyer et sa profonde influence sur les bâtiments d'affaires, les édifices religieux ou culturels, et sur l'image du Brésil dans l'inconscient collectif.
