Summary:
A crisp, functionalist approach, attention to detail and dramatic manipulation of space are the key characteristics that launched Eva Jiricna's award-winning architectural career in Britain. Her breakthrough came with the design of a shop for Joseph Ettedgul that so impressed the fashion industry it lead to commissions by other major names such as Joan and David, Esprit and Vidal Sassoon. Out of these projects grew a reputation for interiors, and in particular for Jiricna's signature component, the staircase: filigree constructions of complexity in sparkling steel. This book presents a selection of 39 completed projects and designs, visually documented in 250 photographs. Typologically diverse, these works include shops, apartments, offices and clubs plus a hotel, library, orangery, and railway station. Features an essay by Peter Kratochull and an introduction by Peter Murray. Text in Czech and English.

Summary:
Itsuro Yoshiba is one of the world's most talented architects and one of few not to be affected by the authoritarian attitudes that came out of the Japanese construction boom during the last half of the 20th Century. If we look in any of Yoshiba's works it is patently clear that he understands the city as an organism and accordingly his buildings are filled with vitality. They are flexible, in line with his philosophy that all buildings should allow for future modifications, and they create harmony with the surrounding natural environment. Works include: Ikegamisone Yayoi Museum, University of Osaka Conference Hall, Sun Palace Hirakata, Amagasaki Housing, Kema Housing, and more. Text in English / Korean

Le Corbusier fascine toujours autant qu'il étonne par l'hétérogénéité de sa création : peintre, architecte, mais aussi poète, théoricien, designer, sculpteur... il est en réalité un artiste complet, voire universel. Dessins, tableaux, sculptures, émaux, tapisseries, livres, architectures et urbanisme ne sont pour lui qu'une "même manifestation créatrice, vouée à diverses formes du phénomène visuel". Par ses oeuvres, il nous fait partager l'essence de sa pensée. Par son application d'une synthèse des arts, il met en harmonie l'homme et son espace.
