''Ordinary Beauty'' — by combining two seemingly antithetical values—aims to foster a generation of architects who, on a daily basis, dismantle the wall separating the ordinary from beauty, construction from architecture. A generation that begins with people and life itself, reclaiming the ordinary and elevating it to a common practice of architectural quality—first(...)

A generation that begins with people and life itself, reclaiming the ordinary and elevating it to a common practice of architectural quality—first imagining a new way of living, then designing the very spaces that will house that new life. A generation that recognizes the responsibility of re- storing beauty to ordinary themes, because every day architec- ture can reveal the invisible power of beauty.

Summary:
À la fin de sa vie, Lina Bo Bardi (1914-1992) conçoit un projet destiné à être présenté lors de l'Exposition universelle de Séville de 1992. Il ne sera jamais réalisé, mais rend compte de plusieurs des préoccupations de cette architecte et intellectuelle, qui vécut entre l'Italie et le Brésil, notamment sa vigilance à l'égard de l’ascendance des valeurs occidentales sur le reste du monde et sa conviction que les identités culturelles sont ancrées dans les manifestations quotidiennes. Pour elle, l’architecture ne se réduit pas à un effet formel, elle implique la vie, la pensée critique et l’action collective. Cet ouvrage nous permet de comprendre le dialogue, à la fois critique et fécond, que Lina Bo Bardi noue avec la culture du xxe siècle. Son héritage créatif et visionnaire reste d’actualité dans un monde où les valeurs et pratiques humanistes sont en jeu.

Summary:
Architecte, restaurateur des grands monuments historiques de la France médiévale, dont la Sainte-Chapelle, les cathédrales Notre-Dame de Paris, d’Amiens et de Reims, la Cité de Carcassonne, et le château de Pierrefonds, et théoricien de l’architecture, Eugène-Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc demeure la figure centrale de l’architecture au xixe siècle — une influence qui dépasse largement le champ du patrimoine. À travers une analyse érudite et nuancée, cet ouvrage explore la pensée de l’architecte sous l’angle de l’imaginaire historique, en mettant en lumière les tensions entre sa volonté de restitution du passé et son engagement dans une modernité en devenir. En s’appuyant sur un vaste corpus de sources, l’auteur interroge les fondements psychologiques, scientifiques et politiques d’une œuvre profondément marquée par le rationalisme, le romantisme et les idéaux progressistes du xixe siècle. Ce livre propose ainsi une relecture en profondeur de Viollet-le-Duc, révélant la force de son identification au Moyen Âge et la façon originale de tourner sa pensée architecturale vers l’avenir. Il met également en évidence la nature charnière, complexe et tourmentée de la période durant laquelle l’architecte sera actif et qui s’étend des lendemains de la Révolution à l’aube de la société industrielle.

Summary:
The architecture of the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s was integral to shaping 20th-century modernism. Russian architect Konstantin Melnikov (1890–1974) was a key figure of this movement, with many of his realized projects, such as his cylindrical residential house completed in 1929, becoming modernist icons. Because he refused to conform to architectural standards after Stalin's cultural turn in 1932, his works were largely forgotten for several decades. He was rehabilitated and received public recognition for his imaginative constructions only a few years prior to his death in 1974. This publication presents models of Melnikov's built and unbuilt works, created under the direction of scholar Pavel Kuznetsov by the students of the Accademia di Architettura in Mendrisio. The models are accompanied by photographs, sketches and project descriptions expanding on Melnikov's work. An essay by Kuznetsov situates the architect in his historical context, shedding light on an underappreciated figure of architectural history.

Summary:
I. M. Pei (1917–2019) was one of the world's most influential architects. Born and raised in China, Pei trained and worked in the United States, establishing a practice that spanned seven decades and multiple continents. His legacy includes the realization of some of the most high-profile projects of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, from the modernization of the Louvre in Paris to the design of the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha. Going beyond the usual building-by-building format of most architectural monographs, "I. M. Pei: Life is architecture" is organized thematically, exploring Pei's life and work through six topics that were central to his unique approach to architecture: transcultural identity, urban redevelopment, art and civic form, material and structural innovation, politics and patronage, and regenerating cultural and historical archetypes. Bringing together previously unpublished archival materials, specially commissioned essays, new photography, and personal contributions from those who knew and worked with Pei, this book presents both celebrated and lesser-known aspects of the architect's life and career while solidifying his position in architectural history and popular culture.

Summary:
Helin & Co, one of Northern Europe's leading architectural firms, has been a key player in Helsinki's transformation into a modern metropolitan region for over 20 years. They understand architecture as work for the future combining the human scale (‘Heart’) with a constant engagement with the urban space on the waterfront (‘Horizon’). The firm works in a context-sensitive and resource-efficient manner. The focus is on combining functionality, urban vibrancy and (archi-)tectonic precision. Three key projects also highlight this approach in the exhibition: Kamppi Centre – a networked urban quarter in the heart of Helsinki with mobility hubs, cultural and residential areas; Kalasatama Centre – a new urban centre at the former harbour that combines density and sea views; Sello District Centre in Espoo – a multifunctional centrepiece with a library, music school and concert hall. Together, they form places that interweave living, working and culture in Helsinki into an open, maritime urban experience.

Summary:
De Zwarte Hond was founded 40 years ago in Groningen and has evolved from an established architectural practice into a multidisciplinary studio with more than 120 people. With offices in the Netherlands and Germany, the firm combines social commitment with high-quality architectural and urban design projects. Going beyond mere architecture and urbanism by taking responsibility for the quality of the built environment in a wider sense, the office considers itself more a movement rather than a traditional design office. Optimistic Activism is presented across two exhibition spaces: the HOW illustrates the collaborative way of working, where generosity shapes both the spatial and social approach. The WHAT showcases twelve projects through models, drawings and photographs, demonstrating how social engagement, design expertise and craftsmanship translate into built reality. Through their methods and projects, De Zwarte Hond generates optimistic impulses, creating places that bring people together and enrich community life.

Viollet-le-Duc (1814–1879) was nineteenth-century France’s most prominent architect and restorer. This groundbreaking study examines how he used drawing and printmaking as a mode of seeing and thinking and as a means to intensify relationships by capturing the vitality of historical worlds and hidden analogies between human culture and the natural realm. Making sense of Viollet-le-Duc’s vast graphic production, scholars consider his imaginative recreations of the most minute aspects of medieval warfare; his approach to the practical tasks of restoring very complex medieval monuments; his experiments in new means of publicly diffusing architectural ideas in the yearly Parisian salons, in didactic manuals, and in children’s books; and even a fantastic project to restitute the original structure of the formidable massif of Mont Blanc. The gamut of techniques employed by Viollet-le-Duc stretches from large painted tableaux to lithographs, steel engravings, woodcuts, gouaches, tracings, and full-scale details.

This book traces Wright’s exploration alongside the stories of an immigrant family’s rise and Milwaukee’s emergence as a vibrant city. It also documents the interiors, relatively unchanged for over a century, that represent Wright’s approach to total design.
