Summary:
''Real estate opportunities'' continues Japanese photographer Takashi Homma’s homage series to the influential American artist Ed Ruscha, following similar photobooks by Homma such as ''Every building on the Ginza street,'' ''Royal road test,'' ''Babycakes,'' and ''Twenty-six gasoline stations.'' Ruscha’s original ''Real estate opportunities'' series was published in 1970 and featured photographs of empty building lots for sale in Los Angeles. For his tribute, Homma (together with series collaborators Yoshihisa Tanaka and Yusuke Nakajima) photographed empty lots in and around Tokyo. Its design and size carefully replicating Ruscha’s original, Homma’s photobook possesses a charm of its own as it captures the strange optimism and sense of possibility of these negative spaces within Tokyo’s dense architectural sprawl.

Summary:
"Figure/Ground: A Design Conversation", is a collection of six dialogues on design between Scott Johnson and William Fain, the principals of Johnson Fain Partners of Los Angeles. Covering a broad range of topics, the conversations center on such themes as the globalization of architecture, the impact of the Internet, the issue of "big architecture" vs. urban design, and the role of historicism in design. Along the way, Johnson and Fain find inspiration in jazz improvisation, Noam Chomsky, Roman urbanism, passive solar heating in China, Catholic monasticism, and Native American spirituality. The dialogues are illustrated with photographs of recent work by the firm, including their plan for central Beijing, and the new Native American Center in Oklahoma City.

Armed with a camera, spray paint, string and cardboard, the artist would produce one of his most significant photographic projects entitled Vandalism. In this visceral, black and white series of images Divola vandalised vacant homes with abstract constellations of graffiti-like marks, ritualistic configurations of string hooked to pins, and torn arrangements of card, before cataloguing the results. The project vigorously merged the documentary approach of forensic photography with staged interventions echoing performance, sculpture and installation art.

The international practice, which is involved in architectural, urban, and product design – as well as branding – is known for its experimental and interdisciplinary designs as well as for its strong social commitment. The publication will document only projects characteristic of this social responsibility – it portrays architecture as an active tool for driving, in a global context, the development of places worth living in. One key project is the Solar Kiosk developed in 2012, a high-output, solar-based unit which is already used by many communities in Sub-Saharan Africa to secure their power supply.

Corse has dedicated the decades since to establishing a unique practice at the crossroads of abstract expressionism and minimalism. Despite her now-frequent association with California’s Light and Space movement, the Los Angeles-based artist evolved independently of the region’s dominant personalities, philosophies and scenes. Produced in conjunction with her solo exhibition at Kayne Griffin Corcoran, this is the first major catalog on the artist. With an essay by Suzanne Hudson and an interview by Alex Bacon, it initiates a critical reappraisal of an artist whose singular vision has been hidden for too long.

Summary:
While he was working to complete the Allmannajuvet Zinc Mine Museum in southern Norway in 2016, Swiss architect Peter Zumthor asked Norwegian architectural historian Mari Lending to engage in a dialogue about the project. In meandering, impressionistic style, and drawing on their favorite writers, such as Johann Peter Hebel, Stendhal, Nabokov, and T. S. Eliot, their exchanges explore how history, time, and temporalities reverberate across Zumthor’s oeuvre. Looking back, Zumthor ponders on how a feeling of history has informed his attempts at emotional reconstruction by means of building, from architectural interventions in dramatic landscapes to his design for the redevelopment of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, which conceived the building on a suitably grand urban scale.

But it is sometime overlooked that the career of Richard Neutra (1892-1970) began in Berlin-Zehlendorf. And yet these houses in Zehlendorf represent a fascinating phase in Neutra's work. With their complex colour schemes and extravagant interior design, they reveal themselves to be more than just an experimental and radically innovative design. The present publication finally provides for a rightful appreciation of Neutra's early works and, alongside historical sources, it collects countless new and unpublished documents about the houses and their first residents.
