Résumé:
Stan Allen is an architect and educator who has won global acclaim, primarily for his work in town planning and his influential 1996 essay ''Field Conditions.'' His new book ''Situated Objects'' shows a unique facet of his creative process: a selection of small buildings and projects on rural sites, most of them situated within the landscape of the Hudson Valley, New York. They demonstrate an approach to architecture that engages in a dialogue with this partly wild and wholly non-urban environment that lies just outside the gates of New York City.

Résumé:
This book presents excerpts from several interviews with the architectural team of Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron in which artist Rémy Zaugg poses a number of provocative questions relating to the architects' thoughts about architecture and art. These thoughtful and informative discussions offer valuable insights into the architectural concepts that underly the work of Herzog & de Meuron, who consciously design their buildings in dialogue with such artists as Joseph Beuys, Thomas Ruff, Helmut Federle and Rémy Zaugg and have developed a practice based on the principle of co-authorship.

Résumé:
Fit is a book about architecture and society that seeks to fundamentally change how architects and the public think about the task of design. Distinguished architect and urbanist Robert Geddes argues that buildings, landscapes, and cities should be designed to fit: fit the purpose, fit the place, fit future possibilities. Fit replaces old paradigms, such as form follows function, and less is more, by recognizing that the relationship between architecture and society is a true dialogue -dynamic, complex, and, if carried out with knowledge and skill, richly rewarding.

Résumé:
Combining civic architecture projects with contributions by writers, historians and artists ranging from Dan Graham to Fran Lebowitz, this publication constructs a dialogue with the legacy of the late architect and longtime Cooper Union professor Diane Lewis (1951-2017). Lewis' pedagogy defined Cooper Union's architecture departure from the 1970s to the mid-2000s. Here, architectural historians Barry Bergdoll and Daniel Sherer converse about the themes and approach in her pedagogical style and thinking. Architects, former students, colleagues and friends generate projects as a continuous discourse with Lewis' pedagogy, carrying her legacy into contemporary dialogues.
