"La idea construída" réunit les textes les plus intéressants de Campo Baeza, dans lesquels il exprime sa conception de l'architecture. C'est à travers des plans et des textes que l'architecte dévoile les clés de son travail. « Merci à Mies Van der Rohe ou à Le Corbusier pour leurs écrits passionnants qui éclairent leurs oeuvres. Je voudrais donc que l'on comprenne aujourd'hui ensemble tous ces textes. Exprimer clairement ses intentions c'est aussi révéler le sens de l'architecture. Si les idées exprimées deviennent réalité construite c'est preuve qu'elles sont valables et que les mots ne sont pas vains. »

For David Adjaye, such early commissions connected him to a rising generation of creators with whom he shared a range of sensibilities. His artistry, clever use of space, and inexpensive, unexpected materials resulted in many innovative and widely published houses. Selecting projects that are challenging because of their sites, complexity, or architectural possibility, Adjaye has both expanded and sharpened his domestic design, taking it in new directions and to new locations.

Summary:
Portman’s America & Other Speculations takes an unconventional and speculative approach towards the understanding and future potentials of the work of one of the world’s most creative, controversial, daring, and prolific architects. Combining the talents of an architect, artist, and developer, John Portman was able to embark on a series of large-scale building projects—megastructures—that radically redefined the relationship of architecture to the city and its citizens. Portman’s own voice and ideas complement the contributions of others, including new photographs by Iwan Baan, to present a more complex and nuanced reading of both the architect and his architecture. Finally, the repertoire of Portman’s buildings is analyzed in meticulous detail and used by a group of students from the Harvard Graduate School of Design as a catalyst for a host of divergent and new architectural speculations.

Summary:
The evolution of Jo Nagasaka’s design process is unveiled in a unique publication about his practice. This book tells the story of Schemata Architects, encapsulating the essence of the studio’s work. Highlighting methods and processes through a series of essays, the designer offers insight into how concepts were developed in order to realise the wide-ranging portfolio of Schemata Architects that are showcased in the book. Nagasaka’s focus is often drawn to tired, found objects or unused spaces. Through investigations to seek modern solutions and pioneering re-purposing techniques, he manages to transform interiors and breathe life back into objects. His projects range from large-scale installations and interactive interior environments to smaller-scale products. Revealing insights into his way of working, the book highlights new findings about how the designer is able to capture the essence of his thoughts and relate the key aspects of a project in creative and innovative ways. The articles emphasise the designer's concepts, giving unique insight into the firm's process from the designer’s perspective.

Summary:
A l'occasion de l'exposition « La Maison Magique », les architectes de l'Atelier Bow-Wow (Yoshiharu Tsukamoto, Momoyo Kaijima et Yoichi Tamai) et Didier Fiuza Faustino ont choisit de travailler un matériau commun dans une logique de production cyclique. Ce matériau, le bois, utilisé dans la construction des deux architectures, est prélevé au Portugal et y sera réexpédié dès la fin de l'exposition pour une deuxième vie. Bien que les architectes aient décidé de travailler cette même matière, les deux habitacles qu'ils présentent offrent aux visiteurs deux réflexions complémentaires. Le catalogue est illustré par une galerie de photographies de l'exposition et du making of de cette installation inédite composée de deux maisons, Chigi House et A home is not a hole. Les plans d'exécution de ces deux structures à la croisée de l'architecture et de l'art sont également reproduits.
