Résumé:
Whether it glows lustrously from neon, emanates purely from LEDs or radiates with intensity from lasers, this elemental medium, light, fascinates artists and viewers alike. Lust for Light selects works by artists who have used light as a primary or catalyzing agent in the featured pieces. Taking a dynamic approach in its curation, the book features the use of illumination in more traditional gallery forms as well as in three dimensional and large-scale installation pieces. Many of the featured artists are skilled fabricators who have been honing their light-inspired works for years, while others have made stunning pieces through collaborations and daring forays, cross-pollinating their artistic visions with new technologies in the process. Featured artists include Yayoi Kusama, Ivan Navarro, Jennifer Steinkamp, Laddie John Dill, Joanie Lemercier, Massimo Uberti, and more.

Résumé:
The publication presents an analysis of 16 contemporary Swiss concrete buildings in scales 1:10 and 1:1 using large-scale detailed isometric drawings. The buildings represent examples of the diverse methods available for using concrete to build contemporary architecture. Series of images on the construction processes and texts on the architectural / construction methods, and a systematic overview of the construction principles of building envelopes, provide the reader with a new, deeper understanding. The book is the result of in-depth research by the authors at the Architecture Department of the ETH Zurich. It demonstrates the innovative strength of Swiss architectural production, which combines current technical requirements with sophisticated building culture.

Résumé:
During the past decade there has been a tremendous growth in daylighting analysis methods, allowing designers to meet ever higher standards. But in relying too heavily on these methods, there is a risk of reducing daylighting design to a quantitative exercise, overlooking the qualitative, aesthetic, and experiential aspects of design. This book reveals how architects have bridged the poetic and practical potential of daylighting to create exquisitely illuminated spaces. In the book, 12 buildings are examined, using photographs, drawings, and plans. Each case study also includes technical analysis diagrams, specially created using specialist software. Featured architects include Renzo Piano, David Chipperfield, and Steven Holl.

Résumé:
"Radical Matter: Revolutionary Materials and Design for a Sustainable Future" presents the ten “Big Ideas” that will shape and inform the choices of materials, design methods, and manufacturing processes made by designers in the years to come. Drawing from a worldwide community of designers who are pushing boundaries with innovative works that go beyond the notion of “sustainable design,” "Radical Matter" demonstrates how holistic systems of design, production, and consumption will benefit our world environmentally, socially, and economically. The ten “Big Ideas” unpack the themes that are impacting our material world through cutting-edge case studies and expert opinions: Repair Is Beautiful; Today’s Trash, Tomorrow’s Raw Material; Natural Assets; The Waste Revolution; Lessons from the Past; Co-Creation; Material Connections; Short Life Materials; Living Materials; and Future Mining.

Résumé:
Un des plus grands défis de notre temps est de densifier et de perfectionner, de manière qualitative, les structures architecturales dejà existantes. Or le mode de construction le plus pérenne consiste à restaurer et perpétuer le bâti. La reconstruction et le développement de nouveaux concepts ne sont plus une question d'idéalisme, mais de ressources et d'économie. Les extensions les plus judicieuses sont à même d'accroître les qualités de ce qui est déjà, sans en réduire l'effet. La surélévayion du bâti constitue, en matière de redensification urbaine, la stratégie la plus exigeante.

Résumé:
L’Hôtel Tassel à Bruxelles, la Maison de verre à Paris ou la Eames House à Los Angeles illustrent aujourd’hui encore l’association réussie entre habitat et construction en acier. Pour autant, ces « icônes » semblent ne plus pouvoir véritablement servir de modèles : les rêves d’architecture sont désormais entravés par des réglementations de plus en plus pointues en matière de protection incendie, de physique du bâtiment et d’énergie. Ce livre analyse les conditions dans lesquelles l’emploi de l’acier peut apporter une valeur ajoutée à la construction immobilière. Outre les trois exemples emblématiques mentionnés, neuf ouvrages métalliques contemporains, réalisés par des bureaux suisses et internationaux, sont présentés ici avec de nombreux plans et photographies.
