Résumé:
For years, architects have enjoyed the challenge of incorporating lightweight structures -- fabrics, tents, canopies, membranes, and so on -- into their designs. Such materials are a welcome boon to architectural creativity, allowing designers to envision spaces that take innovative shapes and interact with their surroundings in ways unattainable with conventional materials. Recent years have seen an increase in the use of such structures, in part because advances in computer technology have made it easier to render and model such projects, and in part because such structures are ideally suited to today's increasing concerns about environmentalism and sustainability. The Magic of Tents showcases innovative uses of lightweight, tented structures from across the United States and around the world -- from an Arizona school to an Istanbul bank, from a Miami nightclub on the beach to a private home in Germany, from corporate headquarters in Los Angeles to offices in Oslo, and many more! The book features both residential and commercial projects, projects with both exterior and interior usages, projects where the tented element is the driving component of the design, and projects that incorporate lightweight structures to accent or address a specific need. Endlessly flexible, nurturing of creativity, cost- and energy-conscious, tented structures are an ideal means to address many concerns of modern architecture -- a creative means to not only define space, but also to transform it into something to meet all sorts of design needs, for projects both grand and small.

Résumé:
Matali Crasset, née en 1965 à Chalons-en-Champagne, est designer industriel de formation, diplômée des Ateliers. Elle travaille d'abord aux côtés de Denis Santachiara à Milan puis avec Philippe Starck pendant cinq ans au sein de l'agence et de Thomson multimédia, où elle anime le designer center, Tim Thom. Elle crée sa propre structure en 1999. Depuis matali travaille sur les rites domestiques et sur l'intégration de la technologie dans le quotidien. Son projet le plus connu, la colonne d'hospitalité, Quand Jim monte à Paris, témoigne de son intérêt pour les nouvelles typologies et de son désir de créer des propositions ouvertes basées sur des notions simples telles que l'hospitalité, la générosité, l'empathie, la flexibilité. Mtali intervient dans des domaines aussi variés que le design industriel, le mobilier, le graphisme, la scénographie, l'architecture intérieure. En 2003 elle réalise un projet global, HI, un hôtel de ville à Nice, qui propose une expérience du contemporain et Le Pigeonnier Capsule, sa première micro-architecture. Le mu. dac de Lausanne a présenté à l'automne 2002, Un pas de côté 1991/2002, la première rétrospective sur son travail. Cette exposition a été ensuite présentée au Victoria & Albert museum de Londres en février 2003 puis au Grand-Hornu en Belgique à l'été 2003.

Résumé:
Parasites are flexible and temporary structures, designed by artists or architects, that feed off existing infrastructure. "Parasite Paradise" documents 23 projects that offer new ways of designing the public domain outside the existing rules. Many of these parasites have settled in the government-designated 'Vinex' district of Leidsche Rijn near Utrecht. There they have introduced new and unforeseen functions, turning a district almost exclusively concerned with dwelling into a more urban entity. What do these small, mobile architectural interventions mean for our strictly regulated society and for the planning of architecture and urbanism? What sense (or nonsense) is there in mobile architecture from a historical perspective? And how does it divide up the roles of art and architecture? Essays by Gijs van Oenen, Ivan Nio, Hans Ibelings, Jennifer Allen and Olof Koekebakker examine these issues in depth. The project descriptions and essays encourage us to consider another approach to planning, one where not everything is fixed beforehand. This makes Parasite Paradise required reading for architects, urban planners and artists whose concern is designing the public realm. "Parasite Paradise" features projects by a.o. Inge Roseboom and Mark Weemen, Shigeru Ban, Atelier van Lieshout, Exilhäuser Architekten, Hans Peter Wörndl, 2012 Architecten, Bik VanderPol with Korteknie Stuhlmacher Architecten, Alicia Framis, Eduard Böhtlingk, Luc Deleu, Attila Foundation (Kas Oosterhuis, Menno Rubbens, Ilona Lénárd), Daniel Milohnic & Dirk Paschke, Maurer United Architects and Dré Wapenaar.

Résumé:
Le cirque aujourd'hui est à la mode. Son lieu participe à son alchimie, ici un chapiteau, là un bâtiment stable. Son histoire est inséparable de celle du voyage. Ses premiers artistes, des officiers de cavalerie qui quittent l'armée pour s'exercer à la voltige en public, appartiennent à la culture de la vie en campement. En perpétuant la tradition du nomadisme, ils en adoptent l'architecture, dont l'attribut est l'éphémère, le matériau la toile, la structure les mâts et les tendeurs. Tout au long de l'histoire, tentes et chapiteaux ont rivalisé en beauté, luxe et prouesses techniques. De l'Egypte, la Perse, la Turquie et l'Europe, en passant par la Russie, la Mongolie et les États-Unis, ce livre nous entraîne dans la vie trépidante d'aventuriers et de conquérants qui ont construit notre monde.

Résumé:
The iA, or Interactive Architecture, bookzine series will consist of 12 issues bi-annually, published over a period of six years under the supervision Kas Oosterhuis, director of Hyperbody at the Delft University of Technology and principal of ONL [Oosterhuis Lénárd]. The Interactive Architecture (iA), concept is based on the equal input (listening), process (thinking), and output (talking) of people as well as the built components of architecture. This will be one of the first publications to document in detail this groundbreaking new development in architecture. iA will undoubtedly become the premier archive of this endeavor. The publication program will consist of scientific papers on particular aspects of iA and iA-driven MSc projects, iA-inspired case studies from practice, interviews with a renowned researcher/practitioner, and blogs by Kas Oosterhuis. The inaugural issue features contributions from Cas Aalbers, Henriette Bier, Nimish Biloria, Michael Bitterman, Sven Blokker, Sander Boer, Christian Friedrich, Hans Hubers, Xin Xia, and others.

Résumé:
How and where we work and spend our leisure time has changed dramatically in recent years. The increased mobility and global networking that pervade all aspects of our lives have had a considerable impact on the spaces in which we live, meet, and work. SpaceCraft presents projects that meet the changing spatial needs of our modern lifestyles and that are simultaneously expanding our current understanding of architecture. On the one hand, the book features flexible, fleeting structures that only exist for a limited time; these include pavilions, art projects or exhibition spaces. On the other hand, SpaceCraft focuses on spaces that are used temporarily such as studios, offices or vacation homes. These structures, which are often used as hideouts from our hectic lives, can either blend in harmoniously with their surroundings or seem as exotic as a spaceship that has just landed. The book documents original work by architects, artists and others that is distinguished by a playful, unconventional use of space. Many of the projects are experimental interventions within urban environments that are strongly influenced by a street art context. As SpaceCraft proves, it is this contemporary influence in particular that is currently redefining the boundaries of architecture. SpaceCraft presents work that expresses our current modes of work and play. The book is thus inspiring both for architects and interior designers, and also for all creatives who work with space.
