Summary:
The Barbican Estate is one of the most berated and beloved architectural projects in London. Taking over 20 years to complete from its inception in 1963, it was widely condemned in the 1980s for its acreage of relentless concrete and lack of clear entrances. Since then, however, it has inspired passion and enthusiasm from residents and visitors alike. With its penthouses(...)

Summary:
The Barbican Estate is one of the most berated and beloved architectural projects in London. Taking over 20 years to complete from its inception in 1963, it was widely condemned in the 1980s for its acreage of relentless concrete and lack of clear entrances. Since then, however, it has inspired passion and enthusiasm from residents and visitors alike. With its penthouses and tower apartments, it provided one of the earliest prototypes for loft living in England. Located close to the City and Clerkenwell, it is now one of the most desirable addresses for politicians, financiers, creative professionals and media figures alike. In the book, the author, David Heathcote traces the development of the Barbican from pre-war planning to present day. Built on the largest blitzed site in the City of London, it was conceived as a new Belgravia to bring the professional classes back to the heart of the City. The project overcame all sorts of difficulties, from the challenges of London's geology to the economic problems that beset Britain in the 1960s and 1970s. The final scheme involved the construction of the highest apartments in Europe, with elements derived from the elegant squares of Georgian London , contemporary architects like Le Corbusier and Scharoun, and the Baroque architecture and gardens of Italy.

The program, which concentrated on the Los Angeles area and oversaw the design of 36 prototype homes, sought to make available plans for modern residences that could be easily and cheaply constructed during the postwar building boom. Highly experimental, the program generated houses that were designed to redefine the modern home, and thus had a pronounced influence on architecture—American and international—both during the program’s existence and even to this day. With over 150 photos and plans and a map of where all houses are (or were) located.

Summary:
The villa has always represented a very special architectural undertaking. It offers architects the opportunity to demonstrate their ability and good taste, but also demands a great measure of discipline. Here the Berlin architect Klaus Theo Brenner has collected together a series of 16 prototype designs for villas and country-houses. All the designs are based on a unifying concept, which looks for the specific feature of architecture in a radical, effective overall form. Objects without compromise; characteristic houses, the effect of which is developed before and with the backdrop of nature – a conception opposing and complementing the urban row house. This architectonic picture-story offers a wealth of inspiration for both architects and their clients.
