Résumé:
Questo volume è dedicato allo Stadio Municipale di Braga, opera del maestro portoghese Eduardo Souto de Moura vincitore del Pritzker Architecture Prize nel 2011. Lo stadio, progettato e realizzato tra il 2000 e il 2003, rappresenta un'opera straordinaria che spinge in avanti, guardando significativamente agli archetipi fondamentali del recingere e del coprire, la ricerca architettonica contemporanea nel campo delle forme adeguate e appropriate, del ruolo espressivo della costruzione, del rapporto con i luoghi nella edificazione del paesaggio urbano. Il volume documenta e ordina materiali del progetto - schizzi, disegni esecutivi, modelli e foto dell'opera realizzata -, testi critici e un prezioso scritto del 2022 di Álvaro Siza Vieira, tradotto per la prima volta in italiano.

Résumé:
A visually immersive celebration of recent residential, commercial, institutional, and mixed-use projects, this book reveals the poetic spirit and guiding principles behind the firm’s unmistakable architectural language; the calming presence of water and fountains encourages reflection; bold, expressive color brings warmth and vitality; and the clarity of geometric form creates spaces that feel both uplifting and composed. Together, these qualities shape an architecture that is enduring, distinct, and profoundly human. Readers are transported into environments where architecture, art, and landscape converge—from the breathtaking, color-saturated Casa Grande located in Los Cabos, and La Pausa House seamlessly embedded in the landscape of Valle de Bravo, to the dramatic coast of Jalisco at the monumental Four Seasons Tamarindo. Rooted in Mexico’s cultural identity yet informed by a global perspective, Legorreta’s work reflects a commitment to material richness, environmental sensitivity, and designing spaces that enhance daily life.

Résumé:
Kengo Kuma is one of Japan’s leading architects and professor emeritus at the University of Tokyo. A prolific writer and philosopher, he proposes architecture that introduces new relationships between nature, technology, and human beings. This book, Kuma’s second monograph following ''Kengo Kuma: Complete Works'', surveys forty projects arranged according to building use, with a timely focus on those that respond to natural disasters and the pandemic, build on the importance of local communities, and address our need to come together with others. The projects range in scale and ambition, from Japan’s Olympic Stadium—where Kuma used timber from every region in the country to build the nation’s largest arena—to a small community center in Yusuhara, and a fairytale museum in Denmark. Each celebrates Kuma’s skill using natural materials, as he pushes them to their limits to create exciting and surprising forms. Take for instance, The Exchange, a community center in Sydney, which has wooden “threads” which wrap around the building, giving the impression of a bird’s nest and the UCCA Clay Museum in Yixing, China, with an undulating organic form that mimics a mountain, covered with 3,600 handmade, clay terracotta tiles. In the book’s introductory essay, designer and Harvard University professor Grace La considers Kuma’s evolution since his previous monograph and explores the themes of his work and how they relate to the architecture world today. The projects included in ''Kengo Kuma: New Works''—stadiums and cultural centers, museums and houses, cafés and parks, temples and pavilions—have been chosen by Kuma himself as best representative of this stage in his career. None appear in his previous book.

Résumé:
For over two decades, the pioneering, multidisciplinary Danish firm BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group has created a wide range of projects that give form to the future, standing out for their bold-yet-practical forms, elements of surprise, and people-focused solutions. ''BIG Atlas'' offers an ambitious and all-encompassing survey of more than fifty completed projects from around the world, from an energy plant topped with a ski slope and a LEGO Museum that seems to be made out of the famous bricks to the firm’s own recently completed Copenhagen headquarters. Spanning a rich variety of typologies, scales, and materials, the featured projects are brought to life through more than 600 photographs, plans, and drawings. Presented together for the first time, they trace BIG’s transformation into fully integrated design, synthesizing the fields of architecture, interiors, landscape, engineering, planning, and product design to advance more sustainable ways of living within our environments while simultaneously raising the quality of our lives.

Résumé:
Divided across five thematic chapters, ''Triangulations'' presents recent projects of Team V Architecture. Each chapter situates six or seven projects and reveals their mutual relations through a triangulation based on three verbs. Using the present continuous tense for all these verbs underlines what these projects are ''doing'’, for a longer period of time, thanks to their continuous presence in the cityscape or landscape, and in the lives of people. The five chapters are complemented by two essays, written by Kirsten Schipper and Josephine Jongbloed respectively.

Résumé:
Elle apparaît fragile, la Mémo, posée au milieu de son rond-point. On dit qu'elle ressemble à un vaisseau spatial, que ses lignes sont futuristes. Certains la trouvent belle et moderne, d'autres simplement moche. Même si elle semble étrange, comme atterri sans raison, dans ce site jugé par beaucoup ordinaire, elle est le fruit d'une volonté politique et d'une ambition culturelle et urbaine : celles de valoriser l'ordinaire du périurbain. Cet ouvrage conte l'histoire de cette création, à travers les textes des bibliothécaires Anne Verneuil, Bernard Mnich et Ann-Sarah Laroche, de l'architecte Benjamin Colboc, de l'ingénieur structure Marc Malinowsky et de l'acousticien Jean-Paul Lamoureux.

Résumé:
BIG is an internationally operating group of architects, designers, urban and landscape planners, interior and product designers, researchers and inventors. The architecture of BIG is created on the basis of an observation of the environment and is suitable for a contemporary form of living. The secret of their architecture lies in the combination of utopia and pragmatism. This monograph shows how this can work. From small projects to a gigantic housing block, from urban space to museum – everything that makes urban architecture fascinating is included. This monograph presents 22 projects from BIG’s creative workshop.
