Summary:
Luis Barragán’s house, Louis Kahn wrote after visiting it, is a place that “could have been built a hundred years ago or a hundred years from now.” So, in more ways than one, is The Air is Blue, an exhibition orchestrated in the master's house and studio by Hans Ulrich Obrist and Pedro Reyes, over the course of three years. The ever-growing list of participants comprised at the end forty-seven artists and contributors, including Francis Alÿs, Daniel Buren, Gilbert & George, Dominique Gonzales-Foerster, Joseph Grigely, Rem Koolhaas, Lygia Pape, Anri Sala, Ettore Sottsass, Rikrit Tiravanija, and Niele Toroni. Their interventions collided visions and conversations about poetry, urbanism, music, sexuality, art, and architecture. A catalogue was published in 2006, but never circulated. After ten years, this reprint consists on an integral black-and-white scan of the original book, with a small appendix of previously unpublished images and a new afterword written by Reyes. All on blue paper.

Summary:
Since the early buildings in the 1950s at Udine in Friuli, Gino Valle has been recognised by international critics as one of the most original and creative European architects of the post-war period. His artistic talent, associated with a great intellectual curiosity and with a genuine passion for the experimentation of new construction systems, led Valle to develop an architectural work resolutely open and multiform. Whether in the smaller towns of Friuli and Veneto or in metropolitan centres as New York, Paris or Berlin, Valle realised a wide range of important works: social housing and banks, factories and offices, town halls and courthouses. These buildings make valuable contributions to debates concerning the relationship between new architecture and historic surroundings, between industrial and open landscape, between urban design and architectural intervention.

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
The evolution of modern architecture has been inextricably entangled in issues of politics, nationalism, and the environment, creating a tension between local context and global development that is unresolved to this day. In this context, few writers have exerted as much influence on architectural theory and practice as Kenneth Frampton. In this illustrated volume, twenty-nine contributors from around the world amplify and pay tribute to his writing and thought. Intended for all those concerned with the built environment, this book offers further evidence of how this scholar, humanist, and teacher has shaped our understanding of the working reality of the architect. The premise of "Modern architecture and the lifeworld" is rooted in Frampton’s understanding of how architecture must engage with both cultural and constructional imperatives; and it addresses strategies for grappling with contemporary concerns such as regional identity amidst urban globalization, and tectonic culture and landform in the construction of place.

In urban structures as well as in design and the details of execution, sustainable architecture demands a value-preserving, resource-friendly approach to materials and construction.

Summary:
The concept of sustainability stands at the center of efforts to develop an architecture capable of meeting the challenges of the future. In urban structures as well as in design and the details of execution, sustainable architecture demands a value-preserving, resource-friendly approach to materials and construction. It was in large part in order to do justice to this development that in 2007, the Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine and Jana Revedin created the international global award for sustainable architecture, which honors architects who have specifically excelled in the area of sustainability.This book documents the work of the prizewinners for 2007 and 2008. A first section introduces the work and thought of each architect, while a second takes an in-depth look at two or three projects that illustrate their distinctive approach.

(available to order)
Summary:
Parasites are flexible and temporary structures, designed by artists or architects, that feed off existing infrastructure. "Parasite Paradise" documents 23 projects that offer new ways of designing the public domain outside the existing rules. Many of these parasites have settled in the government-designated 'Vinex' district of Leidsche Rijn near Utrecht. There they have introduced new and unforeseen functions, turning a district almost exclusively concerned with dwelling into a more urban entity. What do these small, mobile architectural interventions mean for our strictly regulated society and for the planning of architecture and urbanism? What sense (or nonsense) is there in mobile architecture from a historical perspective? And how does it divide up the roles of art and architecture? Essays by Gijs van Oenen, Ivan Nio, Hans Ibelings, Jennifer Allen and Olof Koekebakker examine these issues in depth. The project descriptions and essays encourage us to consider another approach to planning, one where not everything is fixed beforehand. This makes Parasite Paradise required reading for architects, urban planners and artists whose concern is designing the public realm. "Parasite Paradise" features projects by a.o. Inge Roseboom and Mark Weemen, Shigeru Ban, Atelier van Lieshout, Exilhäuser Architekten, Hans Peter Wörndl, 2012 Architecten, Bik VanderPol with Korteknie Stuhlmacher Architecten, Alicia Framis, Eduard Böhtlingk, Luc Deleu, Attila Foundation (Kas Oosterhuis, Menno Rubbens, Ilona Lénárd), Daniel Milohnic & Dirk Paschke, Maurer United Architects and Dré Wapenaar.

"Also known as" offers analogies between objects and architecture, finding shared structures in physical things and architectural ideas, to render ideas relevant to a broad design audience. In this collection of written and visual work, Michelle JaJa Chang bridges conceptual frameworks found in architectural design and contemporary representation to examine design technology's social, material, and political effects. In architectural practice, where visual representation typically precedes building, techniques like drawing and imaging do not merely structure appearances. They are schemas, or organizational theories, connecting the abstract to the real. Buildings evidence representation's abilities to show how something is (through description) and how things should be (through projection).
