Résumé:
Carola Schäfers has incorporated something of the characteristic sobriety and pragmatism of northern Germany into her way of approaching architecture. She does not seek to stand out from or to modify context. If we focus on the principal themes of her work and her premises, we could say that Carola Schäfers adopts the postulates of modernity, but in a(...)

Résumé:
Carola Schäfers has incorporated something of the characteristic sobriety and pragmatism of northern Germany into her way of approaching architecture. She does not seek to stand out from or to modify context. If we focus on the principal themes of her work and her premises, we could say that Carola Schäfers adopts the postulates of modernity, but in a non-dogmatic way. The appropriate use of materials, together with the "planning of the place" distance her architecture, on the basis of its functional rightness and propriety in the use of the materials, from the formal pomposity of this end of the century. This book presents her works and projects completed from 1988 to the present.

Résumé:
"Animate Form" is a book and interactive CD-ROM of recent architectural projects designed by Form, the office of Greg Lynn. The projects documented here explore the potential of time-based animation techniques to inform architectural design. Historically, architecture has been considered static, fixed, and inert. Through the use of state-of-the-art animation and special-effects software, Lynn transforms space and form into highly plastic, flexible, and mutable entities. He uses topological geometries to bend, twist, deform, and differentiate structure, creating unprecedented departures from preconceived notions of architecture. In experimenting with these new methods and media, Lynn has charted an innovative direction in design. The book provides a theoretical context for the experimental projects through a collection of texts by Lynn, extensively illustrated in colour. The CD-ROM is an interactive HTML-based environment that fully documents the design processes used to generate the projects through animations, renderings, model photographs, animations, and texts. The viewer is able to navigate through space and select objects and animations to view at different scales.

Résumé:
A unique and multi-faceted talent, Juan Navarro Baldeweg is one of the two most highly acclaimed Spanish architects living today. Also an artist, his paintings have been exhibited at galleries and art fairs worldwide. The goal of this book, which was designed by Baldeweg himself, is to reflect the many sides of his character. In a running discourse he reveals his own view of architecture and art, while a commentary by J.M. Bonet, Director of the IVAM Modern Art Museum in Valencia, provides insight into Baldeweg's artistic career. Art works presented include paintings, photographs, and drawings; architectural projects are accompanied by sketches, plans, situation maps, axonometric drawings and photographs. In 1998 Juan Navarro Baldeweg was awarded the highly coveted Heinrich Tessenow Gold Medal for architecture.
