The host of examples ranges from places of worship such as Hagia Sophia and Brunelleschi’s Duomo to living spaces such as the Katsura Imperial Villa and the Alhambra, national icons such as the Lincoln Memorial and the Sydney Opera House, and skyscrapers such as the Seagram Building and Beijing’s CCTV headquarters. Rybczynski’s narrative emphasizes the ways that buildings across time and space are united by the human desire for order, meaning, and beauty.This is the story of architecture’s physical manifestation of the universal aspiration to celebrate, honor, and commemorate, and an exploration of the ways that each building is a unique product of patrons, architects, and builders.

With its Alpine peaks, crystalline lakes, and efficient cities, Switzerland has quietly become a center for sophisticated late modern architecture. Architect Peter Zumthor, a former cabinetmaker, and the firm Herzog & de Meuron produced a series of buildings at home and abroad that has paved the way for a younger generation of architects who fuse the country’s traditional materials with high-tech new tools and innovative construction methods. This book goes beyond the standard project-based survey, documenting the most important buildings of the last decade through architectural photographs that highlight the detail, volumetric play, and material experimentation of the buildings and portray them in the unique environments in which they have been designed and built.

Summary:
25 maisons et 15 portraits d'architectes et designers. A travers la visite de 25 maisons conçues par des architectes et des décorateurs novateurs, on voit la maison du Sud changer peu à peu d'aspect. Si les amoureux des vieilles pierres ont appris à aménager de nouveaux espaces très contemporains au sein d'une vieille bastide ou d'une ferme, certains architectes proclament leur différence en construisant des villas radicalement contemporaines. Jardins, terrasses et patios reflètent une nouvelle approche, souvent basée sur une technologie de pointe et une meilleure connaissance de la topographie des lieux. La vision traditionnelle de la maison provençale se renouvelle au profit d'une construction logique et rationnelle réalisée avec des matériaux nobles et bruts : le bois, le verre, l'acier et le béton se fondent au paysage provençal, dans un souci croissant du respect de la nature et de l'environnement.
