Summary:
A detailed history of the international modern house, illustrated with 400 photographs and architectural drawings. As the basic building block of the human environment, the house has served as an inexhaustible playground where architects experiment with theories, styles, forms, and materials. Arguably, the best and most innovative residential architecture has been conceived and realized over the past 100 yearsÑfrom the cantileveral serenity of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater to the spectacular Chemosphere, which resembles a UFO that has planted its landing gear in the Hollywood Hills. This book examines major shifts in international domestic design over the past century as it highlights a superb selection of extraordinary homes. Author Richard Weston engagingly tells the story of the twentieth-century house through eight semi-chronological design themes. From the Arts and Crafts period to the present, he covers a wide range of homes exemplifying each period and presents more than 100 benchmark dwellings with detailed architectural drawings. Weston also addresses the fascinating ways in which domestic design has both reflected and influenced the changing social climates and lifestyles of the past century, making this a book that will appeal to anthropologists, as well as architects, designers, and homeowners.

Summary:
"The bra". "The box kite". "The cat". "The milk carton". "The reclining Picasso". These are the playful names given to the eccentric beach houses of Andrew Geller. Built in the 1950s and 1960s, these vacation homes reflected the idea of summer leisure for a generation more concerned with fun on the beach than ostentatious display. For clients in the Hamptons, on the Jersey shore, and in New England, Geller built dozens of houses, most of wood and most on modest budgets. Geller, who worked with Raymond Loewy and directed the design of such modernist landmarks as the Lever House in New York, combined a modern interest in light, breeze, and functional living with playful form-making.

Summary:
L'univers domestique contemporain suscite depuis quelques années un intérêt grandissant. Des expositions, des magazines et des émissions télévisées rendent compte des dernières innovations en matière d'architecture résidentielle. «Maisons contemporaines 2» dresse un panorama des maisons récentes les plus novatrices construites à travers le monde. Les trente-trois maisons présentées ici ont été réalisées dans quinze pays différents, par des architectes consacrés ou prometteurs parmi lesquels David Adjaye (Londres), Tadao Ando (Japon), Carlos Ferrater (Espagne), Sean Godsell (Australie), Kengo Kuma (Chine), Richard Meler (Etats-Unis), Julie Snow (Canada) ou Werner Sobek (Allemagne). Les maisons sont réparties en trois chapitres thématiques: le premier examine la relation entre architecture et paysage ; le second regroupe des projets répondant à des demandes de clients inhabituelles; le troisième présente des résidences où sont mis en œuvre de nouveaux matériaux et des techniques d'économie d'énergie. Chaque maison est l'illustration d'un regard original sur les modes de vie et l'esthétique actuels : la " petite maison " (Kazuyo Sejima/SAANA, Tokyo) permet ainsi de loger une famille de trois personnes sur une parcelle réduite de 60 m² ; la maison Carter Tucker (Sean Godsell, Australie) et la maison Nenning (Cukrowicz.Nachbaur, Autriche) sont des interprétations modernes de la construction en bois traditionnelle ; la maison Koehler (Julie Snow, Canada) et la maison Weiss (Steven Harris, Mexique) offrent toutes deux un havre de repos dans des sites à la beauté sauvage.

"Les Nouvelles maisons de campagne" célèbre ces constructions et la place qu'elles occupent dans l'environnement et le paysage à travers quatre chapitres principaux ; l'organique, le vernaculaire, le contemporain et l'expérimental. L'introduction retrace l'histoire et l'évolution de ce type de bâtiments, et trente études de cas montrent les approches différentes - modernes ou plus traditionnelles - que des architectes ont adoptées pour définir une nouvelle résidence secondaire, synonyme de variété, d'énergie et d'originalité. Reflet des évolutions récentes de notre société, elle est à la fois plus souple et plus fonctionnelle.
