Summary:
What do outer space capsules, submarines and office buildings have in common? Each was conceived as a closed system- a self-sustaining physical environment demarcated from its surroundings by a boundary prohibiting the transfer of matter or energy. As partial reconstructions of the world in time and space, closed systems identify and implement the basic materials necessary for the sustenance of life. From the space program to countercultural architectural groups experimenting with autonomous living, ''The Architecture of Closed Worlds'' documents a disciplinary transformation and the rise of a new environmental consciousness.

Summary:
Architecture builds upon history. Even the avant-gardist creed to “make it new” still assumes a past. It is impossible to imagine novelty without an awareness of what existed before. This is even more true for the reuse and appropriation of existing structures, where designers take a stance relative to the past. In their transformation projects the office of(...)

Summary:
Architecture builds upon history. Even the avant-gardist creed to “make it new” still assumes a past. It is impossible to imagine novelty without an awareness of what existed before. This is even more true for the reuse and appropriation of existing structures, where designers take a stance relative to the past. In their transformation projects the office of diederendirrix architects retell stories of buildings and sites – by paraphrasing part of the story, by recasting central actors, by making architecture speak in other words. In so doing, they make it anew.

Summary:
In "The New American Village", Thall captures four components of the new edge city -- corporate, commercial, domestic, and environmental -- in a way that no previous photographer has achieved. To find the stark but provocatively beautiful images that appear in the book, Thall spent years exploring the western and northwestern suburbs of Chicago, photographing remnants of open land and farm structures, the process of clearing and construction, corporate headquarters, townhouse developments, model homes, office parks, strip malls, and the many aspects of nature that remain, in one way or another, in these miniature cities.

Summary:
Documenting architectural projects completed in the Netherlands in 2025, this publication is conceived as an open, panoramic record of contemporary practice. ‘NL25’ brings together work across scales, typologies, geographies, and office sizes, offering a broad and inclusive overview of the year’s built output. Rather than a narrowly curated selection, the book captures the diversity of architectural production shaping the Netherlands today, while maintaining a strong editorial language through its artfully designed format. ‘NL25’ therefore serves as both a snapshot of the present moment and a lasting reference for architects, institutions, and enthusiasts.

"Norman Foster works 3" focuses on projects realized from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s, including Stansted Airport outside London, Bilbao's subway system, and the Millennium Tower in Tokyo. This volume examines each project in depth, featuring numerous photographs, original sketches and computer generated drawings. From airports to underground transit stations, from museums to office towers, every building designed by Foster and Partners is a study in the synthesis of a structure's individual elements : its foundation and use, the quality of its materials, and its relation to the skyline or cityscape.
