Summary:
Graeme Mann et Patricia Capua Mann font partie des architectes qui partagent un même intérêt pour l'enseignement et la pratique, deux activités qui se nourrissent mutuellement. Ils ont ainsi enseigné, dans le cadre de l'EPFL, dans les ateliers de Mangeat, Chipperfield, Fretton, Campo Baeza, Zanghelis et ont été nommés professeurs invités en 2006-2007. Dans l'architecture de Mann Et Capua Mann, malgré le fait que chaque projet a sa propre spécificité et répond à un contexte précis, on peut relever une sorte de recherche continue et progressive autour des mêmes thèmes : l'emploi de la géométrie orthogonale, la simplicité des formes, une mise en œuvre sensible des matériaux et enfin une grande attention apportée au contexte.

Summary:
This publication studies methods for creating flexible looks for public and cultural institutions. The classic logos normally used by companies are the result of a unique process of compression and abstraction. By contrast, flexible looks do not conceal their diverse components of identity in a logo, forming instead a complex family of symbols from them. In the(...)

Summary:
This publication studies methods for creating flexible looks for public and cultural institutions. The classic logos normally used by companies are the result of a unique process of compression and abstraction. By contrast, flexible looks do not conceal their diverse components of identity in a logo, forming instead a complex family of symbols from them. In the combination of a basic logo and a family of symbols, the look is in a position to represent the fundamentals (the philosophy of the institution, its program) and the specifics (e.g., temporary exhibitions and events). The author describes the effect and potential of looks and offers the criteria that distinguish fully developed, dynamic looks. Case studies of famous designers such as Karl Gerstner and Ruedi Baur enhance the analysis.

Summary:
In recent years, an unconventional architectural scene ?outside the mainstream? has established itself in China. Its representatives, many of whom were trained in the West, are known for their sensitive handling of space, light, and material, and by their engagement with context and their own tradition. Since Wang Shu, one of the most important representatives of the profession, won the Pritzker Prize, international professionals have become more aware of China?s new architecture. Twenty examples of different building typologies- many with social relevance-? as well as an introductory essay, illustrate current building activities and provide an insight into the cultural and architectonic influences.

Summary:
This volume explores the conceptual "topography" of landscape: It examines the character of landscape as itself a mode of place as well as the modes of place that appear in relation to landscape. The essays demonstrate that the study of landscape cannot be restricted to any one genre, cannot be taken as the exclusive province of any one discipline, and cannot be exhausted by any single form of analysis. What the place of landscape now evokes is itself a wide-ranging terrain encompassing issues concerning the nature of place, of human being in place, and of the structures that shape such being and are shaped by it.
