Summary:
In recent years, an unconventional architectural scene ?outside the mainstream? has established itself in China. Its representatives, many of whom were trained in the West, are known for their sensitive handling of space, light, and material, and by their engagement with context and their own tradition. Since Wang Shu, one of the most important representatives of the profession, won the Pritzker Prize, international professionals have become more aware of China?s new architecture. Twenty examples of different building typologies- many with social relevance-? as well as an introductory essay, illustrate current building activities and provide an insight into the cultural and architectonic influences.

Summary:
He was the most iconoclastic of architects, and at the height of his career his output of writings about architecture was as prolific and visionary as his architecture itself. Frank Lloyd Wright pioneered a bold new kind of architecture, one in which the spirit of modern man truly "lived in his buildings." "The Essential Frank Lloyd Wright" is a one-volume compendium of Wright's most critically important - and personally revealing - writings on every conceivable aspect of his craft. Wright was perhaps the most influential and inspired architect of the twentieth century, and this is the only book that gathers all of his most significant essays, lectures, and articles on architecture. Bruce Pfeiffer includes each piece in its entirety to present the architect's writings as he originally intended them. Beginning early in Wright's career with "The Art and Craft of the Machine" in 1901, the book follows major themes through "The Disappearing City", "The Natural House", and many other writings, and ends with "A Testament" in 1957, published two years before his death. This volume is illustrated with original drawings and photographs, and is complemented by Pfeiffer's general introduction, which provides history and context.

Summary:
Founded by Fredric Benesch and Katarina Lundeberg in 2009, Stockholm-based firm In Praise of Shadows Architecture engages in a wide range of projects of varied scales and typologies. This first monograph on their work features some forty buildings and projects from the years 2009 to 2024. The selection includes small boathouses and garden pavilions, private homes, and housing developments, as well as retail spaces, schools, and library buildings. The ideas and designs of In Praise of Shadows Architecture are remarkable, revealed in buildings that share an elegant signature that manifests itself in the choice and shaping of materials and a focus on the spatial experience. Many of them are timber constructions, as sustainability is a core part of their philosophy, as well as a special interest in Swedish modernist heritage and the famous architectural culture of the Swiss canton of Grisons.

'iheartblob' avails itself of a new visual vocabulary of architecture. Here designs are visualized not in the form of ground plans and sections. Instead, renderings, mixed-reality objects (which are depicted physically and in augmented reality) and animations are the media which reflect the legacy of the mathematician Lagrange.

Instead, renderings, mixed-reality objects (which are depicted physically and in augmented reality) and animations are the media which reflect the legacy of the mathematician Lagrange. Visually, but also on the basis of short theoretical texts, the book facilitates new discussions about the contemporary theoretical and cultural framework – and thus also about the “crisis of philosophy” faced not only by architecture. While the theoretical framework here invokes the principles of object-oriented ontology, in a subsequent step it attempts to unravel the theoretical principles of postmodernity and poststructural formalism.
