Summary:
Bruno Reichlin est l’un des plus grands théoriciens de l’architecture du XXe siècle. Dans son étude des œuvres clés de Le Corbusier, il envisage à la fois la nature même du bâtiment et son fondement théorique. Les textes de Reichlin et sa pratique architecturale sont marqués par son approche des signes et symboles se manifestant dans les œuvres construites ainsi qu’un vaste cadre référentiel allant de la littérature et du cinéma aux beaux-arts. Ce livre rassemble 13 essais sur l’œuvre de Le Corbusier, rédigés par Reichlin au cours d’une quarantaine d’années. À partir de constructions telles que la Villa La Roche, le Carpenter Center, la Petite Maison et les villas Savoye et Mandrot, sans oublier le projet pour l’hôpital à Venise, le livre explore les multiples aspects de la créativité de Le Corbusier dans leurs principes et leur mise en œuvre architecturale. Un très large fond de documents historiques et des graphiques analytiques spécialement conçus pour ces essais accompagnent les textes.

L'autoroute comme un sujet obsessionnel, capable d'éclairer l'inconscient d'une pratique architecturale. Telle pourrait être la description succincte de cet ouvrage qui rassemble des textes inédits ou déjà publiés par Studio Muoto sur le thème de l'autoroute. Ce recueil éclectique de textes – extraits d'articles ou de conférences, notes, descriptions de projet – est complété par un véritable scrapbook photographique réalisé par les architectes de l'agence qui, en 2023, occupe le pavillon français à la Biennale d'architecture de Venise. Ces images prises au cours de leurs déplacements et de leurs nombreux projets illustrent leurs obsessions autant que les errements de leurs réflexions. Holy Highway reflète ainsi le principe du voyage exploratoire comme fondement d'une sensibilité architecturale.

Summary:
Saarinen's buildings are famous worldwide: the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, the TWA terminal in JFK Airport, Dulles Airport, outside Washington D.C., the CBS Building in New York, the General Motors Technical Center in Michigan, the US Embassy in London, and many other landmarks. Equally celebrated are his furniture designs, including the Tulip Table and Womb Chair. While Saarinen's exuberant, even expressionistic, forms were lightning rods for many critics, his unique personal style is now much admired, making him a key figure for many designers practicing today. Saarinen's was a career of innovation. His airport terminals combined the poetry of sculpture with daring structural feats and raganizational genius; his pioneering industrial complexes for GM, IBM, and Bell Labs brought rational modernism to corporate America; and his furniture and residential buildings conveyed an optimistic, humane vision for the future. This illustrated monograph spans Saarinen's entire career, including his drawings, models, most important built works, and furniture.

Summary:
Rick Joy builds with remarkable sensitivity, precision, and grace. The allure of his architecture is often quietly and seductively hidden in the sensual qualities of one's experiences: the sounds, smells, tactile qualities, and moods of his work. The nine buildings shown in this, the first monograph on Joy's work, express his interest in making places that are transcendent moments of space, light, and matter. In each of the projects the physical landscape, its specific environment, and its rich history are revealed and celebrated. While many of the projects here use sustainable materials like rammed earth, Joy's primary interest is in the quality of the spaces he makes. He shows us how efficient and environmentally sensitive architecture can emerge as a by-product from a quest for the timeless qualities that are always associated with great architecture. With a forword by Steven Holl and an introduction by Juhani Pallasmaa.
