Summary:
Andrea Deplazes is a professor of architecture at ETH Zurich and a practicing architect. Internationally, he is best known for his book ''Constructing Architecture: Materials, Processes, Structures'' — a comprehensive handbook on building construction that has been translated into several languages and is widely used in architectural education worldwide. This new book could be seen as the legacy of his teaching. Developed between 2017 and 2025 in the course ''Design and Construction I/II'' at the Department of Architecture, ETH Zurich, it brings together key questions, models, and sketches to explore the fundamentals of spatial design. The material is complemented by images from seminar weeks and excerpts from Deplazes’ personal notebook. It stands as a synthesis of his pedagogical approach and marks the conclusion of his academic career as he retires from ETH Zurich.

Summary:
This publication presents a selection of images from the archives of the Geobotanical Institute Rubel and of Carl Schroeter, which are being kept as part of the ETH Zurich's extensive image archive. Founded by Eduard Rubel (1876-1960) in 1918 in Zurich and later donated to the ETH, the 'Geobotanical Institute Rubel' conducted pioneering research in the area of botanical biodiversity in the Alps. Rubel's teacher, the botanist and ETH professor Carl Schroeter (1855-1939), was himself a pioneer of biodiversity and landscape conservation. Rubel and Schroeter were some of the earliest botanists to use photography as a means to document their research, thus making it available to a wider public and drawing attention to their early efforts in environmentalism. While the photo archives bear witness to a bygone era, their depiction of a changing landscape and progressing human interference are still strikingly on topic today. Sometimes showing near-arcadian scenes, the images are nevertheless highly realistic in their exact scientific documentation of the alpine biosphere.

Summary:
Christophe Girot has occupied the Chair of Landscape Architecture at the ETH Zurich since the year 2000. Girot's projects are all based on simple geometric and gestural movements. His concept of garden architecture begins with the modelling of the earth surface. The resulting topography is the basis of a restrained plant vocabulary.
