Résumé:
This is the first monograph on the life and work of the Czech born British architect Kaplicky (1937–2009). It is a fully comprehensive work based on a decade of research and is a distinctive portrait of one of the most distinguished architects and designers of the 20th and 21st centuries. At the same time it is an exploration into historical events, which influenced a number of talented artists, writers and designers, some of whom were forced, like Kaplicky, to emigrate from Czechoslovakia in order to expand their skills and search for beauty through living in freedom in democratic countries. After immigrating to the United Kingdom in 1968, Kaplicky applied his imagination and diligence and enhanced his skills and aptitude, gaining admiration and respect following the co-founding of the innovative Future Systems studio in 1979. With his wide-ranging architectural and design œuvre Kaplicky affirmed greatness of his immense talent and ability.

Résumé:
Though he garnered global praise at the peak of his career from 1960 to 1990, Australian architect John Andrews faced waning fame as postmodern cultural transformations challenged modernist design values, and wider social and economic changes led to a withdrawal of government-funded institutional commissions. Yet his body of work is a remarkable achievement that deserves to be better known. Following a path from Australia to the United States and Canada and back again, ''John Andrews: Architect of uncommon sense'' examines his most important buildings and reveals how the internationalization of architecture during this period was an unexpectedly dispersed geographical phenomenon, following more complex flows and localized progressions than earlier modernist ideas that travelled from center to periphery, metropole to outpost.

Résumé:
This is the first book devoted to the Bangladeshi architect Marina Tabassum and her multifaceted architectural oeuvre. Tabassum’s exploratory approach makes her architectural practice one of the outstanding contemporary positions internationally. Her diverse oeuvre spans from governmental projects to housing and has brought her numerous honors and accolades in the international field of architecture. The selection of her architecture in this book ranges from early projects in the city of Dhaka shortly after completing her studies at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) to recent mobile modular structures called Khudi Bari. Tabassum is establishing the latter for the people affected by displacement in various geographically and climatically challenged locations—both in the Ganges Delta and in the Rohingya refugee camp at Cox’s Bazar on the border to Myanmar, which is currently the largest refugee camp in the world.

Following "Adjaye: Works 1995-2007", this second volume looks back on the impressive portfolio of work created by architect David Adjaye between 2007 and 2015. During the years covered in this book, the acclaimed architect embraced expansive projects, taking him outside Europe to work on major ventures, such as the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver and the Moscow School of Management Skolkovo. Designing buildings around the world, including two projects connected with the post-Katrina reconstruction program in New Orleans, Adjaye carefully tailored his approach to each place, sensitive to the important role architecture plays in affirming a sense of community and identity. This volume brings together these recent projects and presents them with new analyses and personal insights from the architect, including detailed drawing and site plans and stunning color photography, demonstrating the originality of Adjaye’s talents.

Après celles qu'il donna à Buenos Aires en 1929, ce livre est le deuxième recueil de conférences de l'architecte. Et, comme ce fut le cas à Alger, Moscou, Bruxelles, Athènes, Paris, Stockholm, Rome, Buenos Aires, São Paulo ou Montevideo, ces propos jouèrent un rôle central dans la propagation de ses idées sur l'architecture et l'urbanisme. L'importance de ce recueil tient au fait qu'il permet de mesurer le chemin parcouru par Le Corbusier entre 1929 et 1936. A travers les propos transcrits, la reproduction des dessins et des projections, on peut non seulement suivre la manière dont Le Corbusier transmettait son message, mais aussi reconstituer le temps et le rythme des conférences : les commentaires qu'il improvisait en restituent l'ambiance et les moments d'intensité.

Résumé:
In his new book Absolute Beginners, Spanish architect Inaki Abalos explores forms of innovation in architecture. Drawing on diverse materials elaborated during the 20 years since the publication of his best-known book, The Good Life, Abalos examines questions centred on how and why architectural creation – at least the kind that arouses the greatest cultural interest – is strongly linked to philosophical thought, especially to the essay and the aphorism. He guides us to an understanding why innovation – as happens in philosophy – is inextricably linked to a reflection on the past and to the emergence of new ways of appropriating old problems. Absolute Beginners is a single essay written with effort and passion, made for the pure pleasure of composing a new and complex work and understanding the source materials as necessary fragments, while remaining open to adjustments, changes, and bridges between them. Abalos organises his materials like a piece of music into a cohesive composition, to the delight and insight of his readers.
