Summary:
Using a contemporary and sophisticated formal language, Larsen and his studio have succeeded in extracting the essence of the new and in translating it into a consistent and convincing architectural idiom. His strength lies in simplification of form and function, evident in his use of archetypal elements and themes such as the house-within-a-house and the internal(...)

Summary:
Using a contemporary and sophisticated formal language, Larsen and his studio have succeeded in extracting the essence of the new and in translating it into a consistent and convincing architectural idiom. His strength lies in simplification of form and function, evident in his use of archetypal elements and themes such as the house-within-a-house and the internal street. Brought to international acclaim with his design for the Foreign Ministry building in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in the early 80s, Larsen's most recent works include Christiansbro and the Danish Design Center, both located in Copenhagen. Bilingual edition in English and Danish.

In the perspective paintings of the Renaissance, the "train sickness" works of the 19th century, and the helicopter view of modern times, artists reveal their role as mediums of(...)

Summary:
"Asymptote", an award-winning New York City-based architectural firm, expands the boundaries of traditional practice with work that ranges from buildings and urban design to computer-generated environments. Recognized internationally as both cutting-edge architects and virtual-reality artists, Asymptote partners Lise Anne Couture and Hani Rashid have designed and written the first book to document their ‘real world’ (as opposed to virtual) projects completed since 1995. It includes work as diverse as a trading floor for the New York Stock Exchange; a multimedia research park in Kyoto, Japan; a modular furniture system for Knoll; and a centre for art and technology for the Guggenheim Museum in Soho, New York. Rashid and Couture’s work is intriguing because it draws inspiration from a wide range of sources not traditionally associated with architecture – among them the design of airline interiors, sporting equipment, and organic systems like seashells and honeycombs; and various means of communicating and disseminating information. Asymptote presents a seamless trajectory of projects organized in a non-linear fashion and illustrated with installation photographs, collaged photographs, and computer-generated diagrams and environments. The projects are interspersed with descriptive text and the speculative writing that Asymptote is known for. Both partners combine architectural practice with teaching, Rashid at Columbia University and Couture at Columbia and Parsons School of Design.

Summary:
Archibald Quincy Jones (1913–79) was a Los Angeles-based architect and educator who shared the Case Study goal of reinventing the house as a way of redefining the way people lived in post-war America. A pioneer in ‘greenbelt’ planning and ‘green’ design, Jones raised the level of the tract house in California from the simple stucco box to a structure of beauty and logic surrounded by gardens and integrated into the landscape. He introduced new materials and also a new way of living within the built environment, and his work bridged the gap between custom-built and developer-built homes. The exquisite detailing and siting of Jones’s houses, churches, civic and university buildings make them quintessential embodiments of mid-century American architecture. This is the first book published on Jones. It documents his full career, from his post-war planning projects to his long association with Palo Alto building magnate Joseph Eichler. The book is comprised of two parts: a substantial introductory essay tracing Jones’s life and career, with a summary of key projects and his contributions to planning; and a catalogue of sixty of Jones’s projects illustrated with high-quality black-and-white period photographs, and plans and renderings by Jones.

Jean Nouvel s'est fait connaître en France et à l'étranger par ses nombreuses réalisations. Certaines lui ont valu décorations et distinctions. Cet ouvrage met en valeur ses projets les plus récents, nombreux et singuliers, radicaux et peu connus. Cahiers d'images (dont celles inédites de Georges Fessy) et cahiers de textes se succèdent pour présenter les différents bâtiments. Les textes articulent chacune des séquences : La parole est d'abord donnée à Jean Nouvel avec un ensemble de textes et de conférences, la plupart non publiées et récentes. Viennent ensuite des essais portant sur les problématiques les plus pertinentes de l'architecte (contributions de Paul Virilio sur le caractère cinématique de son oeuvre, Yehuda Safran sur la dématérialisation, Jean-Paul Robert sur l'engagement de l'architecture en tant qu'"état du monde"), les différentes étapes de sa démarche (contributions de Frédéric Migayrou sur les desseins conceptuels, Jacques Lucan sur l'esthétique de l'immanence), puis un éloge de la multiplicité par Chantal Béret. A travers les différentes séquences de son oeuvre livrées au public comme de véritables "stations visuelles", Jean Nouvel explore les modes de la représentation de l'architecture.
