Summary:
In this electrifying showcase of Max Dudler's power stations, Energy Buildings traces the public works constructions of a man who has mastered the architectural square. Credited as one of the formative minds behind the New Berlin, Dudler's residential work at Gendarmenmarkt, and his transformer substation at Lutzoplatz, reveal cubes that are based in a rational architectural evaluation of what is absolutely necessary. Four walls. No frills. As evidenced in the 22 plans included in Energy Buildings, Dudler's core strength is his conceptual backbone, where projects for Vattenfall Europe AG begin as drawings on a page. Beginning with his work for Bewag in the late 80s, the book crisply describes the rise of an architect of the new Germany, a place where an architectural idea is only as strong as the gracefulness of its execution.In this electrifying showcase of Max Dudler's power stations, Energy Buildings traces the public works constructions of a man who has mastered the architectural square.

Antoni Gaudi's unique naturalistic style has made him one of the most famous architects of all time. But even with that high level of reknown, the impulse behind the Catalan architect/artist s well-known works remains shrouded in mystery. Eminent Dutch architectural historian Jan Molema lifts that veil through an exploration of Gaudi's transformation from architect to self-willed artist. By shedding light on Gaudi's artistic influences such as Art Nouveau, his pioneering use of organic shapes and materials, as well as his all-important structural ingenuity, we come to understand not only what made Gaudi so revolutionary but also what his many buildings mean symbolically.

AMERICA, IN AN ALLEGORICAL TIME WARP / USING PRE ELECTRONIC, PRINT AGE TECHNIQUES / WELCOMES RETURNING SPACE HEROES / TICKER TAPE PARADE DOWN FIFTH AVENUE. / ALL I WANT TO DO IS EXPAND MY MIND ...' This book brings together two books bound within a single cover: 'Ant Farm Timeline' and 'Allegorical Time Warp: The Media Fallout of July 21, 1969'. In addition, the publication includes a small dossier of archival material related to Ant Farm's Truckstop Network project (1970-72). Introduced by Chip Lord, the timeline tells the story of Ant Farm's multifaceted experimental work over 114 pages, in as many full page illustrations of original material. The 'Allegorical Time Warp' by Felicity D. Scott, focused on the period from 1969 to 1972, tracks the transformations of an architectural project articulated simultaneously in open-ended media systems and closed life-support systems. The work of Ant Farm has been an archetype for a younger generation of artist's collectives. This publication offers to be the long awaited source for the material that surviced the fire of the collective's studio in august 1978.

(available to order)
Summary:
He was the most iconoclastic of architects, and at the height of his career his output of writings about architecture was as prolific and visionary as his architecture itself. Frank Lloyd Wright pioneered a bold new kind of architecture, one in which the spirit of modern man truly "lived in his buildings." "The Essential Frank Lloyd Wright" is a one-volume compendium of Wright's most critically important - and personally revealing - writings on every conceivable aspect of his craft. Wright was perhaps the most influential and inspired architect of the twentieth century, and this is the only book that gathers all of his most significant essays, lectures, and articles on architecture. Bruce Pfeiffer includes each piece in its entirety to present the architect's writings as he originally intended them. Beginning early in Wright's career with "The Art and Craft of the Machine" in 1901, the book follows major themes through "The Disappearing City", "The Natural House", and many other writings, and ends with "A Testament" in 1957, published two years before his death. This volume is illustrated with original drawings and photographs, and is complemented by Pfeiffer's general introduction, which provides history and context.
