Résumé:
Traditional building forms have undergone repeated revivals and rejections throughout architectural history - from the medievalist nostalgia of the ''Arts and Crafts'' movement to early modernism’s deliberate break with the past, from the fraught alliance of traditionalist styles like Heimatstil with 1930s fascism to the regionalist tendencies of the 1970s.

Résumé:
Traditional building forms have undergone repeated revivals and rejections throughout architectural history - from the medievalist nostalgia of the ''Arts and Crafts'' movement to early modernism’s deliberate break with the past, from the fraught alliance of traditionalist styles like Heimatstil with 1930s fascism to the regionalist tendencies of the 1970s. While those earlier movements often focused on formal opposition to the perceived failures of modernism, today’s discourse goes further: there is growing recognition that building regionally also means building in a climate-conscious way, using locally available materials and resources. The projects presented - mainly in rural Austria, Switzerland, France, and the UK - show how this can be done in practice. The motivations behind a return to traditional forms vary: in some cases, building codes or a protected historic setting played a decisive role; in others, the regional architectural language aligned with the values of the architect or client.

Résumé:
Showcasing selected works from The Museum of Modern Art's architecture and design collection, "Objects of Design" features a wide variety of industrial and domestic artifacts by great designers of the modern period, from early masters such as Hector Guimard, Frank Lloyd Wright and Josef Hoffmann to contemporary practitioners including Droog Design, Ettore Sottsas, Gaetano Pesce, Hella Jongerius and others. Some of the objects represent turn-of-the-century designs of the Vienna Secession, Art Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts movement; others are Bauhaus and de Stijl explorations; still others show Charles and Ray Eames and other American designers of the second half of the 20th century; representations of the Italian design revolutions; and contemporary manifestations of familiar genres using radical new materials and techniques of manufacture. The book's 360 colour plates not only reveal the range of aesthetic viewpoints in design since the late 19th century but together trace the historical development of MOMA's celebrated design collection.

Résumé:
Inigo Jones (1573-1652) is widely acknowledged to have been England's most important architect. As court designer to the Stuart kings James I and Charles I, he is credited with introducing the classical language of architecture to the country. He famously traveled to Italy and studied firsthand the buildings of the Italian masters, particularly admiring those by Andrea Palladio. Much less well known is the profound influence of native British arts and crafts on Jones's architecture. Likewise, his hostility to the more opulent forms of Italian architecture he saw on his travels has largely gone unnoted. This book examines both of these overlooked issues. Vaughan Hart identifies well-established links between the classical column and the crown prior to Jones, in early Stuart masques, processions, heraldry, paintings, and poems. He goes on to discuss Jones's preference for a "masculine and unaffected" architecture, demonstrating that this plain style was consistent with the Puritan artistic sensitivities of Stuart England. For the first time, the work of Inigo Jones is understood in its national religious and political context.

Résumé:
A detailed history of the international modern house, illustrated with 400 photographs and architectural drawings. As the basic building block of the human environment, the house has served as an inexhaustible playground where architects experiment with theories, styles, forms, and materials. Arguably, the best and most innovative residential architecture has been conceived and realized over the past 100 yearsÑfrom the cantileveral serenity of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater to the spectacular Chemosphere, which resembles a UFO that has planted its landing gear in the Hollywood Hills. This book examines major shifts in international domestic design over the past century as it highlights a superb selection of extraordinary homes. Author Richard Weston engagingly tells the story of the twentieth-century house through eight semi-chronological design themes. From the Arts and Crafts period to the present, he covers a wide range of homes exemplifying each period and presents more than 100 benchmark dwellings with detailed architectural drawings. Weston also addresses the fascinating ways in which domestic design has both reflected and influenced the changing social climates and lifestyles of the past century, making this a book that will appeal to anthropologists, as well as architects, designers, and homeowners.

Résumé:
Eugène Atget (1857-1927) spent nearly thirty years photographing details of often-inconspicuous buildings, side streets, cul-de-sacs, and public sculptures in his beloved Paris. Yet before his death, he was practically unknown outside of that city. His genius was first recognized about 1924 by two young Americans living and working in Paris—Man Ray and his studio assistant, Berenice Abbott—who appreciated the elements of contradiction, ambivalence, and ambiguity in Atget's images of Parisian architecture, streets, and parks. Presented in this volume are more than fifty of the Getty Museum's two hundred ninety-five pictures by Atget, with commentary on each image by Gordon Baldwin, associate curator of photographs at the J. Paul Getty Museum. "In Focus: Eugène Atget" also contains a chronological overview of his life and an edited transcript of a colloquium on his career, with participants Baldwin; David Featherstone, independent editor and curator; photographer Robbert Flick, professor of art at the University of Southern California; independent scholar David Harris; Weston Naef, curator of photographs, Getty Museum; Francoise Reynaud, curator of photographs at the Musée Carnavalet, Paris; and Michael S. Roth, president, California College of Arts and Crafts.

Cet ouvrage s'organise de façon semi-chronologique autour de plusieurs grands thèmes : la maison comme œuvre d'art; maison moderne; les «machines à habiter»; lieux, climats, cultures; le rêve américain; modernisme scandinave; l'habitat post-moderne; continuité et mutations. À travers ces thèmes, l'auteur retrace l'histoire de l'architecture domestique contemporaine, du mouvement Arts & Crafts né dans les pays anglo-saxons à la fin du XXe siècle, jusqu'à nos jours. Chaque chapitre passe en revue un grand nombre de constructions, les plus importantes sont analysées en détail et illustrées par de nombreux dessins d'architectes, de plans, à travers plus de 400 photographies. Au-delà d'une analyse formelle, l'auteur propose ici une réflexion sur la façon dont l'architecture domestique reflète et influence l'évolution des modes de vie.

Résumé:
L’architecture est, concrètement, l’« art de construire ». Pourtant on ne la considère souvent que sous son aspect abstrait d’art du design ou de la composition. Les architectes, anciennement « chef charpentiers » ou maçons, sont peu à peu devenus des designers. Cette évolution a vu grandir le fossé entre les idées et leur réalisation, malgré d’occasionnelles tentatives pour renverser la tendance, notamment avec le mouvement des Arts and Crafts au XIXe siècle. Après un siècle consacré pour l’essentiel aux débats sur la forme et l’espace, le monde de l’architecture connaît aujourd’hui un intérêt renouvelé pour les matériaux, alors même que les progrès technologiques semblent renforcer la tendance à l’abstraction. Par compensation, ce phénomène entraîne une amélioration des qualités matérielles des bâtiments. L’architecte possède aujourd’hui un contrôle direct sur l’atelier et le site de construction, ce qui lui permet de rapprocher les processus d’imagination et de construction. Après une brève introduction, le livre s’ouvre sur trois chapitres historiques et critiques : « matériaux de construction », « surfaces et forme » et « nature des matériaux ». Six chapitres plus courts suivent : « les matériaux en place », « les matériaux dans le temps », « les jonctions », « la finition », « le sens », « les surfaces ». Un débat sur le futur des différents matériaux de l’architecture contemporaine clôt l’ouvrage.

Résumé:
L’architecture est, concrètement, l’« art de construire ». Pourtant on ne la considère souvent que sous son aspect abstrait d’art du design ou de la composition. Les architectes, anciennement « chef charpentiers » ou maçons, sont peu à peu devenus des designers. Cette évolution a vu grandir le fossé entre les idées et leur réalisation, malgré d’occasionnelles tentatives pour renverser la tendance, notamment avec le mouvement des Arts and Crafts au XIXe siècle. Après un siècle consacré pour l’essentiel aux débats sur la forme et l’espace, le monde de l’architecture connaît aujourd’hui un intérêt renouvelé pour les matériaux, alors même que les progrès technologiques semblent renforcer la tendance à l’abstraction. Par compensation, ce phénomène entraîne une amélioration des qualités matérielles des bâtiments. L’architecte possède aujourd’hui un contrôle direct sur l’atelier et le site de construction, ce qui lui permet de rapprocher les processus d’imagination et de construction. Après une brève introduction, le livre s’ouvre sur trois chapitres historiques et critiques : « matériaux de construction », « surfaces et forme » et « nature des matériaux ». Six chapitres plus courts suivent : « les matériaux en place », « les matériaux dans le temps », « les jonctions », « la finition », « le sens », « les surfaces ». Un débat sur le futur des différents matériaux de l’architecture contemporaine clôt l’ouvrage.
