Summary:
'Sharing the Land' explores how human beings perceive, represent, and give meaning to nature – and how these processes continually shape one another. The practice of Sabina Timmermans spans drawing, painting, and spatial installation. It begins in the landscape, where she spends long periods experiencing its physical and sensory elements, which in the studio develop into large charcoal drawings, collages, and clay models. By extracting natural forms from their original context and rendering them as sculptural, bodily presences, her images take on the resemblance of living beings. The layered process of creation mirrors the slow rhythms of natural growth. 'Sharing the Land' combines artworks with photographs, field notes, and texts by guest writers Rebecca Nelemans and Norbert Peeters.

They distinguished themselves by conveying the message in a clear, concise and forceful manner. Schuitema himself referred to it as �right ahead�. In an international context, this typography and photography matched the work of El Lissitzky and Alexander Rodchenko in Russia, Karel Teige and Nadislav Sutnar in the erstwhile Czechoslovakia, and Herbert Bayer, Joost Schmidt and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy in Germany. This book, the first monograph on Paul Schuitema, not only deals with his graphic work, but also with his activities as a photographer, film-maker, and furniture designer.

Summary:
From Roman times to the present, knowledge of plants and their cultivation have exerted a deep impact on cultural changes. This book highlights the religious, artistic, political, and economic consequences of horticultural pursuits. Far from a mere trade, horticulture profoundly affected Jewish and Persian mystical poetry and caused deep changes in Ottoman arts. It contributed to economic and political changes in Judea, Al Andalus, Japan, Yuan China, early modern Mexico, Europe, and the United States. This book explores the roles of peasants, botanists, horticulturists, nurserymen and gentlemen collectors in these developments, and concludes with a reflection on the future of horticulture in the present context of widespread environmental devastation and ecological uncertainty.

Summary:
Carola Schäfers has incorporated something of the characteristic sobriety and pragmatism of northern Germany into her way of approaching architecture. She does not seek to stand out from or to modify context. If we focus on the principal themes of her work and her premises, we could say that Carola Schäfers adopts the postulates of modernity, but in a non-dogmatic way. The appropriate use of materials, together with the "planning of the place" distance her architecture, on the basis of its functional rightness and propriety in the use of the materials, from the formal pomposity of this end of the century. This book presents her works and projects completed from 1988 to the present.

The Fondation Louis Vuitton by Frank O. Gehry rises from the Bois de Boulogne as a new landmark in the Parisian skyline. Gehry's dynamic architecture is both glittering and multifaceted: is it a sailing vessel, an iceberg, or a sea monster?

The Fondation Louis Vuitton by Frank O. Gehry rises from the Bois de Boulogne as a new landmark in the Parisian skyline. Gehry's dynamic architecture is both glittering and multifaceted: is it a sailing vessel, an iceberg, or a sea monster? It fascinates with its wealth of references and, at the same time, escapes any clear-cut definition. Three outstanding representatives of different generations of art history, James S. Ackerman, Irving Lavin, and Horst Bredekamp have together paid a visit to the Fondation Louis Vuitton. They explore the building in three essays that try to fathom the floating architecture of the "magician" Gehry in the context of both art and architectural history.

What relevance does the function have for the choice of a material? Is the aging ability of materials taken into account in the design? And can light be understood as material? These and other questions characterize the process of designing buildings for craftmans. The models and drawings of the designs alternate with the contributions by the architects Andreas Bründler, Piero Bruno and Thomas Kröger and are as readable in connection with them as they are independent of what is written.

Summary:
In the challenging context of accelerating climate dynamics, the core discipline of architectural design is evolving and embracing new forms of action. New York-based nonprofit Terreform ONE has established a distinctive design tactic that investigates projects through the regenerative use of natural materials, science, and the emergent field of socio-ecological design. This kind of design approach uses actual living matter (not abstracted imitations of nature) to create new functional elements and spaces. These future-based actions are not only grounded in social justice, but are also far-reaching in their application of digital manufacturing and maker culture. Terreform ONE tackles urgent environmental and urban social concerns through the integrated use of living materials and organisms.
