Résumé:
A companion volume to "Modern Construction Handbook", "Modern Construction Roofs" is a textbook for architects and structural and environmental engineers who wish to broaden their understanding with techniques that can be applied internationally. The six chapters are organized according to the primary materials used in roof construction: metal, glass, concrete, timber, plastics, and fabrics. Each set of double page spreads contains drawings and annotated details that explain specific forms of roof construction. Built examples from high-profile designers are also included to illustrate specific principles. With over fifteen years experience working as an architect in facade and roof detailing, author Andrew Watts offers detailed know-how in "Modern Construction Roofs".

Résumé:
As architecture programs throughout the country break out of the classroom and adopt the holistic methods of design/build programs, the need for a textbook that bridges the gap between construction materials and design sensibility is sorely needed. Students must be taught how a choice of material affects the form and look of a structure; they must also learn how inspired design can inject any material with true personality and zeal. Broken into five sections — glass, wood, metals, plastics, and concrete — "Materials for design" makes a thorough study of each material's properties, followed by a series of 10–12 case studies of that material put to imaginative use by today's architects from around the world.

Résumé:
Le béton armé fut-il découvert ou inventé ? Autrement dit, que savait-on de cette technique avant qu'elle ne prenne le nom de matériau ? Et avant même d'être "armée", que représentait pour les constructeurs ou les architectes cette espèce de boue épaisse, informe, seulement bonne à solidifier la masse des murailles ou des fondations ? Le béton aujourd'hui concentre sur lui beaucoup de haine (pour l'homme de la rue), mais aussi beaucoup d'amour (chez les architectes). Ce divorce affectif ne doit pas masquer le processus complexe et profondément enraciné dans l'histoire qui a conduit à son fantastique développement, jusqu'à en faire le matériau le plus utilisé dans le monde pour la construction depuis cinquante ans. C'est là l'objet de ce livre : explorer les origines, entreprendre la genèse d'une technique aujourd'hui parfaitement banalisée, mais qui aura mis presque deux siècles à se constituer.

Résumé:
Licht Kunst Licht in Berlin, founded by Andreas Schulz in 1992, develops lighting scenographies for museums, administrative and public buildings and private residences. This monograph presents recent major projects like the Bundeskanzleramt or the Mariott-Hotel in Berlin. Despite the variety of design programs the interdisciplinary team of lighting designers, architects, designers and electrical engineers remain consistent in their concept and approach: the complex interaction of lighting effects, rather than the formal celebration of a luminary object, is at the centre of all planning considerations. This is the first international monograph on this highly successful and innovative lighting design office.

Résumé:
With over 1,200 illustrations, plans and detail drawings, "Constructing architecture" is a veritable encyclopedia for anyone interested in the essential technical information needed for building and construction, regardless of design style. This systematically organized book is divided into sections on materials, building components, building types, case studies and a catalog of components, all drawn to a common scale, providing everything the professional or the student might need to transform their designs into built projects. Underlying this practical book is a respect for the primacy of design, the belief that building is not simply a fact of engineering or technology, but the translation and culmination of a creative act that can only be successfully completed if the technical principles of construction are well understood.

Résumé:
If there is a new language of contemporary design, surely it is pattern. Evocative, hypnotizing, sensual, calming, jarring, soothing patterns cover, conceal, and reveal an astonishing range of emotions and are at home on a chair or lamp as they are on the facades of enormous buildings. ''Patterns in design'' examines this new trend, illustrating it with work by design luminaries like Hella Jongerius, Tord Moontje, Michael Lin, Olaf Nicolai, and Sauebruch and Hutton. Along the journey, the reader will experience a diversity of colors, shapes, and applications, as well as new technologies like laser engraving and digital milling that promise an even bolder future for patterns.
