Summary:
« La Corée du Nord est le pays le plus fermé du monde. Les étrangers y entrent au compte-goutte. Il n’y a pas d’internet, pas de café... En gros, pas de divertissements. On peut difficilement sortir de l’hôtel, et rencontrer des Coréens s’avère pratiquement impossible. Misère! Qu’est-ce qu’y faut pas faire pour bosser dans le dessin animé. »

Summary:
This volume presents and examines this significant urban architectural production, and discusses it against a background of the design of cafes and restaurants across the 19th and 20th centuries. Major themes and developments are discussed and illustrated with case studies, from the functionalist pre-World War Two architects in Central Europe representing modern society through the design of public spaces, right up to the design of sophisticated bars and restaurants as part of the recent urban renaissance of Barcelona and Paris in 1980s and London in the 90s.

Summary:
In the Austria of the 1960s, the visionary designs of architects and artists garnered international attention. Described as the "Austrian phenomenon," these projects and installations contained the concentrated creativity of the Austrian architectural neo-avant-garde between 1956 and 1973. In Vienna, these avant-garde dreams came to be symbolized by Hans Hollein’s Retti Candle Shop and Hermann Czech’s many cafés and bars, which are still successful today, including the Kleines Café (Little Café), Wunderbar, and Salzamt. The best-known protagonists of this scene include Hans Hollein, Walter Pichler, Raimund Abraham, Coop Himmelblau, Haus-Rucker-Co, Missing Link, and others. The book consists of two parts. The first contains "Documentation" of important publications from the years 1958–1973 in international trade journals like Archigram, Domus, Architectural Record, and Casabella, in which the young architects sought attention for their programs. The second is "Reconstruction," a cross-section of images and texts from publications on the "Austrian phenomenon," elucidated and situated in the context of international architectural history by authors such as Friedrich Achleitner, Bart Lootsma, Stanislaus von Moos, Joseph Rykwert, Anthony Vidler, and others.
