Beyond style, the work moves away from the object towards behavioural models stimulated through participation and interaction.

Résumé:
D'un échange de maître à élève, la correspondance devient vite celle de deux amis unis par leur passion commune de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme. Au sein des Ciam, ils développent leur réflexion théorique sur la ville à l'origine de La Charte d'Athènes et de leurs projets communs pour Barcelone et Bogota. Après la guerre, Sert est un soutien influent dans les combats pour les projets de l'O.N.U. et de l'Unesco. Président des Ciam puis doyen de la faculté d'architecture de Harvard, il réussira à convaincre Le Corbusier d'accepter le Carpenter Center, son seul projet nord-américain, et se chargera de l'exécution avec un immense dévouement. Cette correspondance est aussi un beau témoignage d'une longue amitié.

Résumé:
Carlo Scarpa (1906 1978) was denied the appropriate appreciation during his lifetime. His work was dismissed as just being art and only after his death people began to understand the high quality contained. This book shows the development of his individual architectural language by linking aspects of the arts with architecture. From his sensitive consideration of the urban context to the composition of stunning details; the author manages to give the reader an insight into the architect s work. Especially the investigation in his exhibition designs illustrate Scarpa s knowledge of material and his solving of complex problems. Places like the Castelvecchio Museum in Verona became a Mekka for everybody seeking the ultimate refinement in exhibition design and restoring old buildings.

Résumé:
Borromini a été très présent aux yeux des Suisses sur leurs billets de banque, mais que sait-on de cet architecte célèbre, né près de Lugano en 1599 ? À Rome, où il séjournait à l'Institut suisse, l'écrivain contemporain Etienne Barilier se prit de ferveur pour le maître du baroque dont la vie nous est restée inconnue, à part son suicide. Du grand rival de Bernini demeurent les oeuvres. Il ne fut pas facile de percer les secrets de l'Oratoire des Philippins, de Saint-Charles-aux-Quatre-Fontaines, de Saint-Yves-de-la-Sapience... C'est par des visites assidues et des observations fascinantes qu'ont repris chair, en ces pages, de grandes figures du dix-septième siècle romain et le créateur d'une architecture éminemment personnelle. Il ne sera plus possible de fondre les travaux de Borromini dans "le baroque", car on perçoit ici une destinée d'artiste qui va seul. Il demeure sans âge par sa passion des matières et des ordonnances constructives, mais frappé d'un respect aigu, on dirait pascalien, du limité et de l'illimité. Dans les mandats les plus contraignants il révéla son génie.

Résumé:
The work of Bart Prince is recognized internationally for both its seminal creative vision and for carrying on an American tradition of individualism in architecture originating with Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Bruce Goff. Prince shares with these pioneers a fundamental way of thinking about modern American architecture, which in his work he has combined with a firm belief in the experiential impact of a building to render a contemporary style all his own. Originally published a decade ago, this updated version includes five new houses, demonstrating the architect’s maturing style and continued commitment to creating transcendent experiences in manipulated space. Stunning photographs and floor plans bring the reader as close as possible to experiencing these uniquely formed, magnificent buildings. A remarkable collaboration between the author, the photographer, and the architect, The Architecture of Bart Prince is the only comprehensive introduction to one of the most creative architects practicing in America today.
