Résumé:
Since 2004, Wienerberger has presented a biannual international Brick Award to recognize outstanding achievements in brick architecture. For the 2018 edition, more than six hundred realized designs from forty-four countries were submitted in the categories Feeling at Home, Living Together, Working Together, Sharing Public Spaces, and Building Outside the Box. This book presents the winning and shortlisted designs through concise descriptions accompanied by atmospheric images, site and floor plans, views and elevations, and sections. Five topical essays by Sandy Attia, Patricia Barbas, Marcos Parga, Wolfgang Pauser, and Mikko Summanen round out this celebration of contemporary brick architecture. With contributions by Holland-based architects Monadnock, M3H Architecten, Hans van der Heijden, BureauVanEig, Bedaux de Brouwer Architecten, Koen van Velsen Architecten, Architectuur MAKEN, vector-i architects, the Cloud Collective and MVRDV; and others such as: Sandy Attia, Patricia Barbas, Wojcich Czaja, Christian Holl, Marcos Parga, Wolfgang Pauser, Mikko Summanen, and Jan Peter Wingender.

Résumé:
The use of light and illumination in architecture and design is currently evolving and making an increasingly significant impact in various creative disciplines. Today, architects use light installations to create a different night-time identity for buildings that allow for additional functions and presentations. Light is also important for designers who use it to illuminate locations, or conjure works of art, forms and images in commercial or cultural contexts. In short: light is a magical medium for creative experimentation that today’s designers are using to produce a broad spectrum of exciting work. The 44 illustrated projects have been realised by a number of top-level artists, designers and manufacturers, all of whom are setting trends in the creative use of light.

Résumé:
Now in its Fifth Edition, this essential textbook has been used by thousands of students annually in schools of architecture, engineering, and construction technology. The bestselling reference focuses on the basic materials and methods used in building construction, emphasizing common construction systems such as light wood frames, masonry bearing walls, steel frames, and reinforced concrete. New introductory material on the processes, organization, constraints, and choices in construction offers a better look at the management of construction. New sections covering the building envelope uncover the secrets to designing enclosures for thermal insulation, vapor retarders, air barriers, and moisture control. The Fifth Edition also features more axonometric detail drawings and revised photographs for a thoroughly illustrated approach and the latest IBC 2006, CSI MasterFormat, ASTM references, and LEED information.

In this connection, Internet Technologies (IT) have made a deep impact on design possibilities and the control of production logistics, enabling feats such as ‘freeform architecture’ and ‘increasingly precise elaboration’ to gain prominence. Alternatively, ‘Rapid Prototyping’ and ‘Rapid Manufacturing Technology’ provide the chance to create one-off components and elements for architecture. Here, processes of construction that are related to current available technologies of production and assembly are explored within the context of the opportunity to design and construct with their advantages – the realisation of genuine IT-driven architecture.

Résumé:
The impact of climate design on architecture is obvious, but design trends in their current form and programming attempt to implement this growing area of design merely as an additional item in architectonic planning. The alternative is to start with an architectural attitude that will produce a comprehensively integrated design and which will in turn require a radical shift in understanding. Design teams will have to accept equality in the importance of values as well as understanding the demands and consequences of all relevant themes. This pressing issue that is explored in depth here was produced as a by-product of a series of lectures and a workshop at the TU Delft, and is accompanied by photographs, plans and diagrams.
