Summary:
The transformation that has taken place in Mallorca during the last 50 years was unimaginable, especially for elderly residents. However, the last decade has been the one in which the island suffered a lack of control more centred on speculation and not so much on necessity. Certainly Mallorca depends on tourism (no other alternative, providing similar or better(...)

Summary:
The transformation that has taken place in Mallorca during the last 50 years was unimaginable, especially for elderly residents. However, the last decade has been the one in which the island suffered a lack of control more centred on speculation and not so much on necessity. Certainly Mallorca depends on tourism (no other alternative, providing similar or better prospects, has been presented yet). Aware of the need, we built a territory too fast. In this book, a look from the outside is proposed, taken by people with a relationship to the island, with an affection for it, but who, from a distance, can offer a fresher opionion of what could happen. Texts are provided by architects, designers, biolgists, etc. Photographs are by Jordi Bernado.

Summary:
In the course of the 20th century it became increasingly clear that architecture is by no means a timeless medium. The late 1960s in particular were marked by research into techniques that would allow buildings to be adapted to suit the requirements of the day. This often led to buildings that were programmatically neutral and characterless. The new challenge facing(...)

Summary:
In the course of the 20th century it became increasingly clear that architecture is by no means a timeless medium. The late 1960s in particular were marked by research into techniques that would allow buildings to be adapted to suit the requirements of the day. This often led to buildings that were programmatically neutral and characterless. The new challenge facing architects is designing for the unknown, for the unpredictable. 'Form follows function' is giving way to concepts like polyvalence and semi-permanence. New spatial and constructional structures generate freedom, taking time as their departure-point. Alongside theoretical reflections on such time-based architecture, this book illustrates countless projects involving the time factor, ranging from Shigeru Ban's Naked house, an apartment building in Malmö by Gert Wingardh and Kas Oosterhuis's Emotive house to OMA's mixed-use complex 'De Rotterdam'.

All the houses were individually designed for single families, and are situated in different environments, from the countryside to the city and from the seashore inland. The houses in this collection have been selected by architect Esa Piironen, who himself has designed a number of small houses. Characteristic of his approach has been a commitment to environmentally friendly and humane architecture.

Ces courants et mouvements vont connaître, au cours même du siècle qui les a vu naître, de nombreuses réactualisations. Libérés de leur ancrage historique et social, ils vont tour à tour nourrir la pensée architecturale et s'introduire dans la polémique et le débat sur la ville et son urbanisation. Qu'il s'agisse de maisons particulières, d'immeubles à appartements ou de bureaux, de cités-jardins ou sociales, de bâtiments publics ou industriels, d'églises ou encore de lieux de divertissement ou d'aménagements paysagers, Bruxelles conserve de nombreux témoignages architecturaux illustrant l'Art Déco et le modernisme. L'Exposition internationale des Arts décoratifs et industriels modernes de Paris, en 1925, joua un rôle crucial pour les arts décoratifs belges. Elle constitua une impulsion créative pour certains commerces bruxellois qui se profilèrent alors en ensembliers. Les Expositions universelles de 1935 et 1958 ont, elles aussi, exercé une influence urbanistique considérable sur la capitale, générant d'importants travaux d'infrastructure et un programme de construction de grande envergure, dans l'ensemble de la région.

Summary:
Chicago is quintessential apartment dweller’s city. Landmark apartment houses designed by renowned architects and decorators, past and present - Howard Van Doren Shaw, Benjamin Marshall, David Adler, Mies van der Rohe, SOM, Tigerman McCurry, Vinci Hamp, and Lucien Lagrange - have afforded dramatic views and fabled luxury to apartment residents. "Chicago Apartments: A Century of Lakefront Luxury" presents a unique history of the nearly 100 elevator structures whose amenities, unusual interior spaces, architectural features, and distinctive innovations define the history of Chicago apartment design. Chicago historian Neil Harris traces essential themes in the development of the city and its apartment culture, profiling each apartment building with new research, floor plans, and never published archival duotone photographs of famed buildings dating from 1883 to 2004, including 500 North Lake Shore Drive, 209 East Lake Shore Drive, 1301 North Astor, Marina Towers, and the Hancock. The preface by Sara Paretsky, whose celebrated detective V. I. Warshawki is an astute observer of Chicago’s built landscape and its inhabitants, offers a literary voice to this first-time study of the architectural and cultural history of these buildings.
