Summary:
Since the introduction of steel as a building material in the early twentieth century, its superior performance has challenged conventional wisdom about construction, enabling designs of surprising lightness and span. Steel offered the opportunity to significantly expand buildings vertically and thus emerged as a symbol of the conflict between technological progress and the architectural ideal. More recently, the use of exposed steel elements in modern architecture ushered in a rediscovery of buildings’ metamorphoses. From the Eames House in Los Angeles to the Hôtel Tassel in Brussels and the Maison de Verre in Paris, "At Home in Steel" celebrates the use of steel in residential architecture.

Summary:
"Radical Matter: Revolutionary Materials and Design for a Sustainable Future" presents the ten “Big Ideas” that will shape and inform the choices of materials, design methods, and manufacturing processes made by designers in the years to come. Drawing from a worldwide community of designers who are pushing boundaries with innovative works that go beyond the notion of “sustainable design,” "Radical Matter" demonstrates how holistic systems of design, production, and consumption will benefit our world environmentally, socially, and economically. The ten “Big Ideas” unpack the themes that are impacting our material world through cutting-edge case studies and expert opinions: Repair Is Beautiful; Today’s Trash, Tomorrow’s Raw Material; Natural Assets; The Waste Revolution; Lessons from the Past; Co-Creation; Material Connections; Short Life Materials; Living Materials; and Future Mining.

La reconstruction et le développement de nouveaux concepts ne sont plus une question d'idéalisme, mais de ressources et d'économie. Les extensions les plus judicieuses sont à même d'accroître les qualités de ce qui est déjà, sans en réduire l'effet. La surélévayion du bâti constitue, en matière de redensification urbaine, la stratégie la plus exigeante.

Pour autant, ces « icônes » semblent ne plus pouvoir véritablement servir de modèles : les rêves d’architecture sont désormais entravés par des réglementations de plus en plus pointues en matière de protection incendie, de physique du bâtiment et d’énergie. Ce livre analyse les conditions dans lesquelles l’emploi de l’acier peut apporter une valeur ajoutée à la construction immobilière. Outre les trois exemples emblématiques mentionnés, neuf ouvrages métalliques contemporains, réalisés par des bureaux suisses et internationaux, sont présentés ici avec de nombreux plans et photographies.

Summary:
Over the course of three years, the Institute of Architecture and Planning at the University of Liechtenstein, the Mackintosh School of Architecture in Glasgow, and the Academie van Bouwkunst, Amsterdam, cooperated on an international research project dedicated to the design of façades. "Crafting the Façade" presents the results of this productive cooperative study, which cut across disciplines to look at historical developments in the design and building of façades, the theoretical underpinnings that can explain these developments, the common materials and their main characteristics, and the techniques used in assembly. The project also prompted a great deal of innovative design work, including detailed drawings at a scale of 1:10 and the design and construction of life-size prototypes in stone, brick, and wood—all of which are reproduced here among the book’s two hundred illustrations.
