Wood is organic, it is regarded as warm, as making human surroundings cosy. In addition, it can compete with any hi-tech material: wood has an extraordinarily good weight-to-strength ratio, has outstanding acoustic and insulation properties, and when properly deployed and looked after, it is also durable. Timber buildings have always achieved low-energy standards, they(...)

Summary:
Wood is organic, it is regarded as warm, as making human surroundings cosy. In addition, it can compete with any hi-tech material: wood has an extraordinarily good weight-to-strength ratio, has outstanding acoustic and insulation properties, and when properly deployed and looked after, it is also durable. Timber buildings have always achieved low-energy standards, they are climate-neutral to erect, and environmentally friendly to demolish. Those who recognize and exploit the natural qualities of wood have a wonderfully versatile material which can be brought to life in the hands of a creative designer and builder. With the help of more than 300 illustrations and architectural drawings, this book presents 25 proprojects from all over the world which exemplify a whole variety of forms and applications of wood both for interiors and exteriors.

Summary:
Un ouvrage de référence sur le processus complexe de production d’un bâtiment hospitalier : de l’élaboration du projet médical à la construction et à l’aménagement intérieur, en passant par la programmation et la conception. Rompant avec la politique des modèles, la construction hospitalière a évolué et s’est diversifiée tant d’un point de vue formel que morphologique et fonctionnel. La programmation s’est aussi généralisée et affinée, prenant en compte les besoins du personnel, l’évolution des pratiques médicales et les progrès techniques et technologiques. Sur ce dernier aspect, la robotisation croissante d’un certain nombre de gestes et d’actes médicaux a entraîné des changements importants dans l’organisation fonctionnelle et donc spatiale des bâtiments. L’incidence d’un cadre réglementaire et normatif de plus en plus contraignant est également très forte et, en corollaire, les opérations de restructuration et d’extension sont de plus en plus nombreuses.

Summary:
This wide-ranging book provides for the first time a complete view of German Gothic church architecture. Architectural historian Norbert Nussbaum surveys church construction from the early thirteenth to the early sixteenth century in the German-language regions of medieval Europe. These areas of the Holy Roman Empire--including Bohemia, Austria, northern Switzerland, Alsace, Silesia, and East Prussia--were hereditary fiefdoms at the time, and their diverse cultures contributed to the extreme variety of German Gothic. Nussbaum looks at this rich period of architectural history from many perspectives and offers an informative tour of dozens of German Gothic churches, spectacular for both their beauty and variety. Soon after the Gothic first influenced German builders in the thirteenth century, it developed in several directions, Nussbaum shows. The differences are reflected in the great cathedral lodges of Cologne and Strasbourg, the conscious poverty of form expressed by the Mendicant orders, and red brick churches on the North Sea and Baltic coasts. A fourteenth-century synthesis of these styles was at last achieved in Prague Cathedral, the only great church financed by a German kaiser, Charles IV. In the fifteenth century, German Late Gothic style--unlike the monarchy-supported style of Germanyís neighbors to the west--evolved as cities undertook the financing of parish churches. This period of design culminated with the construction of transcendent churches early in the sixteenth century, characterized by high, sculptured towers and audacious, sometimes fantastic vault structures.
