Summary:
Kenz Tange (1913–2005) is a peerless figure among twentieth-century Japanese architects, unmatched in his talent, influence, and versatility. A leading force of the Metabolist movement, he was the first non-Western architect whose works would be embraced as universal in value. This unique assemblage of new scholarship by an international team of experts reframes Tange(...)

Summary:
Kenz Tange (1913–2005) is a peerless figure among twentieth-century Japanese architects, unmatched in his talent, influence, and versatility. A leading force of the Metabolist movement, he was the first non-Western architect whose works would be embraced as universal in value. This unique assemblage of new scholarship by an international team of experts reframes Tange according to the contingencies of Japanese modernism as well as contemporary discourses of cultural identity, technology, urbanization, and the synthesis of the arts. Case studies on celebrated works—Hiroshima, Tokyo Bay Plan, and Yoyogi Stadiums—clarify Tange’s wide-ranging interests and design methodology. Illustrated with archival drawings and period photographs, this volume provides fresh and compelling perspectives on the practices, discourses, and production contexts of Tange’s work as well as the architecture and urbanism of postwar Japan. Kenz Tange—Architecture for the World represents the most serious and comprehensive reassessment of Tange in the English language in decades.

Summary:
Le Corbusier's Pavilion for Zurich uses numerous handwritten documents, drawings, and papers to trace the history of Le Corbusier's last built work. This dwelling, which is also a museum, was initiated by Zurich gallery owner Heidi Weber. With its abstract forms and colors, it represents an intellectual legacy of the famous architect in which the further development of architecture as envisaged by Le Corbusier is clearly legible. From the first ideas and sketches from and beyond, the genesis of this exceptional building - the completion of which the architect did not live to see - is presented with illustrations and documents. This book explains the significance of the pavilion, which differs strongly from the beton brut of Le Corbusier's late work, in terms of its position as one of the architect's central and forward-looking works.

D’importants chantiers qui s’achèvent, d’autres qui débutent, des projets en cours et en concours, des expositions, des publications attestent la belle vitalité du bureau fondé en 1990 par les architectes Ueli Brauen et Doris Wälchli. Dans leur quête pragmatique et inspirée d’un langage propre, ceux-ci dévoilent, de desseins en ouvrages, leur manière de penser et de faire l’architecture et se plaisent à faire entendre d’autres voix dans la leur. Ils aiment à dire, en effet, que la théorie transversale de leur travail, ce dont se nourrit le processus projectuel, c’est le dialogue élargi : dialogue entre les expériences et les compétences des différents intervenants du projet, dialogue entre les solutions possibles d’un problème, dialogue avec le site, le contexte... Les travaux présentés dans cet ouvrage sont emblématiques de leur production et de leur démarche créative entendue comme ouverture d’esprit, celle que requiert l’exercice raisonné de la profession d’architecte. Cet ouvrage illustré de photographies, plans et détails retraçant les quelque 20 années de réalisations et projets du bureau d’architecture Ueli Brauen + Doris Wälchli.

Chaque projet est lui-même l'occasion de revisiter la pensée de Le Corbusier, à travers ses écrits, ses croquis et dessins préparatoires et de mettre ainsi en perspective l'édifice avec l'ensemble de la production passée ou à venir de l'architecte.

New catalogue from Aedes am Pfefferberg. The exhibition explores the conceptions, input, processes, as well as unpredictable deviations which result in the spaces of built work. While buildings are made for specific purposes, subject to analysis, calculation, and evaluation, de facto human activities can never be fully anticipated. They just happen. And in doing(...)
