Résumé:
Since the nineties Swiss architecture has gained worldwide recognition beyond mere circles of experts.

Résumé:
Not all architectural renderings are done by straight edge or CAD program; not all spaces are visually related through blueprints. Impressive architectural spaces, spaces of atmospheric density, are also, and often to highly suggestive effect, created by hand. "Hand-Drawn Worlds" presents exemplary architectural drawings by 20 internationally-recognized contemporary(...)

Résumé:
Not all architectural renderings are done by straight edge or CAD program; not all spaces are visually related through blueprints. Impressive architectural spaces, spaces of atmospheric density, are also, and often to highly suggestive effect, created by hand. "Hand-Drawn Worlds" presents exemplary architectural drawings by 20 internationally-recognized contemporary architects and artists, among them Ken Adam, Alexander Brodskij, Lee Dunnette, Richard Ferrier, Zaha Hadid, Willem van den Hoed, Steven Holl, Syd Mead, Gottfried Müller, and Michael Sorkin. Flanked by related essays, fantastic rooms of great perfection and unmistakable character rise in more than 140 large-format illustrations. An essay on the history of architectural drawings completes the volume.

Résumé:
This urban research project examines the often overlooked areas known as "barrios," "shantytowns," or "slums" and assesses their validity as an architectural phenomenon in their own right. The hills outside Caracas are dotted with transient, dilapidated structures which are home to thousands of people who create their own socio-economic environment, one which has a unique place in the city's infrastructure. This publication can be understood as a handbook of informal urban and cultural practice. Its validity extends far beyond Caracas and encompasses nearly all Latin American metropolises. Its essays question the value of traditional Western-style socio-economic and socio-political structures, present a new form of urbanism as a subject for discussion, and show the need for a profound change in our understanding of urban culture, especially in today's era, which is characterized by increasing insecurity and uncertainty. This project was jointly initiated by the "Federal Cultural Foundation" of Germany and the "Urban Think Tank" in Caracas, Venezuela.

Résumé:
In amusement parks and theme parks the role of architecture in generating an emotional experience has long outgrown its mere functional and structural aspects. This trend is now pervading shopping malls, airports, museums, and even banks. It is a trend that progressive architects will have to confront as it becomes an increasingly important feature for investors and users in our pleasure-seeking society. With a wealth of international examples ranging from the prototype Disneyland (where Walt Disney's concepts of animation were congenially transformed into reality) to historical amusement parks and modern day theme parks, "Animation" investigates this global trend in contemporary architecture for the first time. Visual images and analytical texts reveal how animation architecture functions, the effects it can achieve, and the uses it can be put to.
