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.

Summary:
Studying the relation of architecture to society, this book explains the manner in which the discipline of architecture adjusted itself in order to satisfy new pressures by society. Consequently, it offers an understanding of contemporary conditions and phenomena, ranging from the ubiquity of landmark buildings to the celebrity status of architects. It concerns the period spanning from 1966 to the first years of the current century – a period which saw radical change in economy, politics, and culture and a period in which architecture radically transformed, substituting the alleged dreariness of modernism with spectacle.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios held at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 14, the second incarnation of Roman Architecture presents itself as a double folded exercise: partly portraying the systematic work by Palladio in the Venetian inland during the second half of the sixteenth century, partyly reusing the accumulated knowledge in order to deal with urgent challenges in contemporary Flanders. The oeuvre by Palladio represents on of the most prototypical incarnations, almost literal indeed, of a possible Roman project. His prolific work for the venetian inlandrepresents a tremendous effort to systematise the complexity of an entire territory, from the city proper (i.e. Vicenza), to the countryside proper 9the sprawl still to come).

The Architecture of Neoliberalism pursues an uncompromising critique of the neoliberal turn in contemporary architecture.

This book reveals how a self-styled parametric and post-critical architecture serves mechanisms of control and compliance while promoting itself, at the same time, as progressive. Spencer's incisive analysis of the architecture and writings of figures such as Zaha Hadid, Patrik Schumacher, Rem Koolhaas, Greg Lynn and Alejandro Zaera-Polo shows them to be in thrall to the same notions of liberty as are propounded in neoliberal thought.

Summary:
'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. Visually, but also on the basis of short(...)

Summary:

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.
