Summary:
Architect Hugh Maaskant (1907-1977) played a major role in modern Dutch architecture. He designed revolutionary, complex, large-scale buildings with metropolitan allure, like the Groothandelsgebouw and the Euromast in Rotterdam and the Scheveningen Pier. In Maaskant: Architect of Progress architecture historian and Maaskant expert Michelle Provoost places Maaskant in an international and historical perspective. Hugh Maaskant is considered the godfather and forerunner of the generation of Winy Maas (MVRDV), Adriaan Geuze (West 8), Willem Jan Neutelings and Rem Koolhaas. Yet he was underappreciated for many years. Provoost describes Maaskant’s work as part of the optimistic, stimulating aspect of post-war reconstruction and the exciting world of the 1960s. She also places him in the context of Dutch architecture, both of his time and of later generations, particularly the ‘Super Dutch’.

Using the original drawings from the Le Corbusier Foundation's digital archives, architect Steven Park has beautifully redrawn 130 perspectival sections, as well as plans, sections, and elevations of exterior forms and interior spaces. These new drawings-which combine the conceptual clarity of the section with the spatial qualities of the perspective-not only provide information about the buildings, they also help students experience specific works spatially as they learn to critically examine Le Corbusier's works.

Summary:
The newest volume in the Conversations series features Japanese architect Tadao Ando. One of the most celebrated living architects, Ando is best known for crafting serenely austere structures that fuse Japanese building traditions with Western modernism. His minimalist masterworks, geometric forms clad in silky-smooth exposed concrete, are suffused with natural light and set in perfect harmony with the landscape. In these highlights from lectures delivered at the University of Tokyos Graduate School of Architecture, Ando candidly describes his experiences as a largely self-taught practitioner, tracing his development from an early interest in the traditional building craft of his native Japan through his political awakening in the turbulent 1960s to his current stature as one of the worlds foremost architects. In addition to exploring his aesthetic influences and working process, Ando offers students a road map not only for maintaining professional integrity, but also for becoming effective agents of change in the world

The Archigram group pioneered a playful brand of architecture that was visionary, utopian, and grounded in social need. Through a provocative series of publications and exhibitions, the avant-garde cooperative challenged an architectural establishment they felt had become reactionary and self-serving. They advocated a complete rethinking of the relationships between technology, society, and architecture, rightly predicting today's information revolution decades before it came to pass. A Guide to Archigram 1961-74 is a compact history showcasing the group's most interesting and influential schemes, from walking cities and plug-in universities to inflatable dwellings and free time nodes.

Summary:
Ce livre constitue un plaidoyer, par l'un des architectes majeurs de notre époque, destiné à éduquer le regard pour apprendre à observer notre environnement sans focalisation excessive sur ce qui peut apparaître "nouveau". Pour Alvaro Siza, imaginer ne consiste pas à "inventer" des éléments extraordinaires mais principalement à s'imprégner et à organiser différemment ce que le passé, les lieux ou les autres cultures nous livrent d'idées, de processus, de formes...L'architecte doit pouvoir être qualifié d'humaniste au sens où il cherche à servir avant tout les hommes pour lesquels ses bâtiments sont destinés. Il ne doit pas chercher a priori la prouesse technique ou plastique ce qui pourtant semble constituer la caractérisation d'une architecture contemporaine mondialisée. Pour Siza, l'un des fondamentaux reste bien le lieu, le site et sa prise en compte dans ses interactions avec l'"humain", au centre de toutes les contraintes d'un projet. Ces textes (illustrés de dessins originaux) témoignent de la démarche originale et respectueuse d'un très grand architecte.
