Today Souto de Moura, with his purist yet atmospheric structures is one of the most well-known architects on the Iberian peninsula. “I began practically at the very beginning and concentrated on the essence of architecture. The most fundamental element is naturally the wall.” Souto de Moura succeeded in combining Portugal´s strong tradition of stone masonry with abstract modern forms, creating an architecture of compelling beauty. Werner Blaser conveys through expressive photography the elemental and timeless nature of Souto de Moura´s buildings focussing in particular on his use of stone as a building material.

Álvaro Siza designed and built (1960-63) the Lordelo do Ouro Cooperative Building in Porto by appointment of the national federative cooperative movement in Portugal. The building has seldom been considered throughout almost four decades of critical reviews about Siza’s worldwide renowned work. That was probably due to the deteriorated aspect it was reduced to, in fact(...)

The building has seldom been considered throughout almost four decades of critical reviews about Siza’s worldwide renowned work. That was probably due to the deteriorated aspect it was reduced to, in fact few years after its completion the management fired the architect and operated heavy alterations. Nowadays, because of socio-economic changes, which were not matched, the Cooperative lies almost abandoned. No doubt that the building looks poor, nevertheless the robustness of its spatial and structural organization has preserved most of its intrinsic quality, which is still there just waiting to be rediscovered and once again fully appreciated.

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
Issue 229 of the magazine Quaderns explores the theme of the border in its literal sense -the border as a political and cultural separation between countries or geographical areas- but also as a place which gives rise to cultural crossovers alongside its function as separator. This issue looks firstly at the transformation of two formerly divided cities, Berlin and Beirut, which are currently undergoing processes of integration of what used to be opposing sectors and of recovery as city-centre spaces of the wastelands generated by division. Then it analyses the present-day situation in two border areas characterised by strong economic and cultural contrasts between the two sides of the dividing line: the border between the United States and Mexico, and the Strait of Gibraltar. The works of architects and artists who have recently worked in these places are taken as a starting point for debate about the strategies brought to bear in frontier territory by urbanism, art and architecture. The issue includes an introductory text by Saskia Sassen and features Mathias Sauerbruch on Berlin, Álvaro Siza on Ceuta, Rafael Moneo and Ousama Kabbani on Beirut, and Gloria Anzaldúa on the border between Mexico and the United States. It also presents a series of works actually carried out in these cities by Sauerbruch & Hutton, Álvaro Siza and Rafael Moneo, along with projects by Berger-Parkinnen, Kollhof & Kollhoff, Gustav Lange, OMA/Rem Koolhaas and Peter Zumthor, among others, and features a dossier with projects carried out in other countries by Catalan architects, including works by Miralles-Tagliabue, J. Ll. Mateo and Elías Torres. The theme is completed by an extensive photo reportage by Camilo José Vergara about the Mexican border.

Le terme d'"intranquillité", introduit dans le titre, fait référence à la manière dont certains architectes abordent leur discipline, mêlant réflexion et pratique, et produisant des essais critiques plus dictés par la recherche que par l'élaboration d'une théorie systématique qui nourrit véritablement leur oeuvre. Le terme "stratégie" peut être interprété ici comme une série de mécanismes, de procédés, de paradigmes et de stratagèmes formels qui apparaissent dans l'oeuvre des architectes contemporains : ce sont eux qui permettent de configurer leurs projets.

Summary:
Seen through the eyes of an architect and photographer, The Architecture of Natural Light considers the many effects of natural illumination in contemporary buildings. This comprehensive survey begins with exploring the advances and experimentation of architects throughout the centuries. Each of the following chapters is devoted to a specific quality of natural light, including evanescence, atomization, and luminescence, and examines the particular uses of light through many disciplines—from art history to film and literature. With more than fifty case studies of buildings from around the world, this volume considers works by some of the world’s most influential architects, including Tadao Ando, Steven Holl, Herzog & de Meuron, Peter Zumthor, Frank Gehry, Álvaro Siza, Alberto Campo Baeza, Rafael Moneo, Rem Koolhaas, Jean Nouvel, Fumihiko Maki, and Toyo Ito, among others.
