Summary:
This book is the first to focus on Ossipoff's career, presenting significant new material on the architect and situating him within the tropical modernist movement and the cultural context of the Pacific region. The authors discuss how Ossipoff synthesized Eastern and Western influences, including Japanese building techniques and modern inspiration from the interplay of indoor and outdoor space as advocated by such architect as Frank Lloyd Wright, applying these to the concerns and vernacular traditions of the tropics. The result was a vibrant and glamorous architectural style, which is captured vividly in this volume in archival images and new photography.

« Fiat Lux » est une collection méticuleusement constituée d'édifices dédiés au sacré répartis dans la plus grande région d'Italie que sont les Pouilles. Dans le talon de la botte réputé pour son patrimoine architectural centenaire et inégalé, ce livre met en lumière des bâtiments contemporains ignorés et méprisés, qu'ils soient brutalistes, modernistes ou simplement excentriques, pourtant empreints d'une importante valeur sociale. Une enquête historique célébrant des architectes méconnus et des conceptions sous-estimées, ce livre questionne et examine la subtile relation entre espaces publics sacrés, autorité divine et vie quotidienne dans le sud de l'Italie.

Summary:
The medieval city of Braunschweig, in Germany s picturesque Hanz Mountains, received a utopian redesign during the new city movement of the 1930s. This abrupt change in the city s organization proved a starting point for photographer Bettina Lockemann's newest project. Lockemann's photographic images reveal streets too broad, disrupting the flow of space for any use other than driving, restricting the natural interaction of foot traffic and public contact. From the Periphery is a challenging body of work that explores architectural norms and stimulates the rethinking of our urban environments.

Summary:
Selwyn Pullan became known specifically for his ability to contextualize the work of architects through unique composition and tonal range. His photographs were included in numerous architectural periodicals in the 1950s and '60s, and he played an important role in transmitting the new style of West Coast modernist architecture to consumers via popular magazines. Pullan photographed projects for British Columbia's leading architects from this era, including Ron Thom, Arthur Erickson, and Barry Downs, and today his photos are all that are left of many of these projects, now demolished or altered beyond recognition.

Summary:
The rhythmograms of Heinrich Heidersberger (1906-2006) are intricately curved compositions of pure light that weave together abstract figures, organisms and space. The artist created these complex light patterns during the 1950s and 1960s, capturing the invisible and elusive worlds of time and motion in a single frame. Widely known as an architectural photographer of postwar modernism, Heidersberger's little-known rhythmograms serve as a fascinating bridge between the work of early modernists and the future of algorithmic art and architecture. This is the first critical study of these rhythmograms in all their delicate detail.
