These images of the so-called utopian city are stark and carefully devoid of people. In this way, Van der Weijde chooses for a clear focus on the structures and urban spaces, lending the series an architectural purity and imparting some of the grand scale of the city, perhaps even agreeing with the critics who have referred to it as dehumanising and full of elegant monotony.

A captivating look at the complexity and depth of lines in architecture.

Addressing the idea of Swiss architecture as synonymous with accuracy, quality, functional clarity, and having a strong formal identity, it goes a step further to examine its balance between the exceptional quality of craft, manufacturing techniques, and the use of state-of-the-art technology. The architecture is thus imbued with a huge technical rigour and pure formal and sensory awareness. With ten projects by Buchner Bründler and six by AFGH, ranging from small- to large-scale, plus an essay by José Manuel Pedreirinho.

Summary:
This volume contains work, both built and unbuilt, both large-scale and small, designed in the 1990s by the firm of Philip Johnson/Alan Ritchie Architects. Alan Ritchie has worked with Johnson since 1969; the firm was established in 1994. The projects shown may be divided into two groups. Johnson’s interest in the past decade in sculptural form - or the way in which sculptural form translates into architectural presence - has led to designs that involve both new kinds of shapes and new ways of using classic architectural form to make entirely new works of architecture. Such sculptural works, for the most part small in scale, include Da Monsta, the new visitors pavilion at Johnson’s famed Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut, and a spectacular folly consisting of four pyramids made of chain-link fencing at an estate in New York State. Simultaneously, the firm has continued its ongoing work with larger projects, such as a 27-story apartment tower for Tribeca, in lower Manhattan; the Cathedral of Hope in Dallas; an addition to the Amon Carter Museum, originally designed by Johnson in 1961, in Forth Worth, Texas; and a proposal for the architecture school at Texas A University in College Station. Also included are a pair of proposals for La Défense in Paris; three large houses; a new china design for the Four Seasons restaurant in New York; and a new public clock, sponsored by Movado, for Lincoln Center. Introduction by Paul Goldberger.
