Résumé:
This classic of prediction, written in 1969, has now been brought up-to-date, the prophecies judged, and the omens extended to 2030. The success rate of Jencks' forecasts and his method of combining expert prediction with structural analysis make this book an important contribution to the art of conjecture. Not only did he predict a series of innovations that(...)

The success rate of Jencks' forecasts and his method of combining expert prediction with structural analysis make this book an important contribution to the art of conjecture. Not only did he predict a series of innovations that have changed the world, such as the Internet, but he identified six main architectural traditions that continuously transform over time. This provides a method of gauging what are likely to be the future movements in architecture, a useful and fascinating tool for speculation.

Résumé:
A Hundred Years of Dutch Architecture reconstructs the frames of reference within which Dutch architects operated in the century that has just ended. It exhaustively documents twenty buildings and complexes on the basis of the original drawings.

Résumé:
A Hundred Years of Dutch Architecture reconstructs the frames of reference within which Dutch architects operated in the century that has just ended. It exhaustively documents twenty buildings and complexes on the basis of the original drawings. Each of these projects embodies a 'take' on a particular architectural issue and serves as a crystallization point for five approaches - traditionalist, expressionist, functionalist, rationalist and postmodern - that can be distilled from the welter of design strategies. The significance both social and designwise of the five architectural strands is explored in as many essays before moving on to the documentation. A removable 'Calendar' traces the lines of development of Dutch architecture in a clear and easy-to-follow form. One hundred characteristic architectural works - one for each year - are placed against a backdrop of the technical and social developments. Among the projects documented at length in this book are designs by Berlage, De Klerk, Rietveld, Dudok, Oud, Friedhoff, Van Eyck, Hertzberger, Koolhaas and Coenen.

Résumé:
When it comes to architecture, Switzerland wields an international influence that belies its small geographic size. Such prominent figures as Herzog & de Meuron and Peter Zumthor lead a chorus of innovative new voices emanating from this mountainous nation where craftsmanship, simple beauty, and environmental sensitivity have always been prized values. "Swiss Made" presents the work of the celebrated studios and architects at the forefront of Swiss design, much of which has never been seen before in the United States. In his introduction, historian Steven Spier provides an overview of Swiss architecture and considers the cultural attitudes that have fostered such refined buildings. Critic Martin Tschantz assesses the Swiss tradition of integrating progressive design, indigenous building techniques, and advanced engineering systems. The photographs by Christian Richters are supplemented by drawings and plans of the many projects included in this volume. "Swiss Made" features the work of: Burkhalter & Sumi, Diener & Diener, Gigon & Guyer, Herzog & de Meuron, Peter Märkli, Peter Zumthor, and many others.

Is it because of new technical possibilities in materials and structural engineering? Or is the answer to be found in new social preoccupations in science?

Résumé:
This book offers a comprehensive account of modern Spanish culture, tracing its dramatic and often unexpected development from its beginnings after the Revolution of 1868 to the present day. Specially-commissioned essays by leading experts provide analyses of the historical and political background of modern Spain, the culture of the major autonomous regions (notably Castile, Catalonia, and the Basque Country), and the country’s literature: narrative, poetry, theatre and the essay. Spain’s recent development is divided into three main phases: from 1868 to the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War; the period of the dictatorship of Francisco Franco; and the post-Franco arrival of democracy. The concept of ‘Spanish culture’ is investigated, and there are studies of Spanish painting and sculpture, architecture, cinema, dance, music, and the modern media. A chronology and guides to further reading are provided, making the volume an invaluable introduction to the politics, literature and culture of modern Spain.

Describing settlement areas as either ”urban” or ”rural” is no longer apt as we now live in a collage of urban, suburban, and rural elements which together form conglomerations with several centres over large areas of land. This requires new political solutions, challenging the institutional framework of federalism and the concept of local government. The study comprises contributions by experts from the fields of architecture, sociology, geography, politics and economics, which take into account the various perspectives. The prominent Dutch architect Winy Maas from MVRDV presents as an outsider a qualified vision for a Switzerland of the future, and also provides visual material to illustrate other contributions.
