Résumé:
The first of its kind in Europe, Plymouth Theatre Royal's new complex provides a single location for the production of theatrical works, including the construction of sets, costumes and props, combined with rehearsal and education spaces. Sited on reclaimed land overlooking the river Plym, inland the aera is industrial, with BOC, a fish factory, oil, sewage, fertilisers, and the usual crop of tin sheds, engineering structures, and the occasional oil tank or gasholder. Into this mix PTR2 forms the thin end of a regeneration edge.

Résumé:
A rediscovery of one of the most powerful schools of Modernism. Brazilian Modernism is the soulful alternative to its European parent, better known for theoretical rigor and cold precision. Using the modern materials of concrete and reinforced glass, as well as wood and steel, Brazilians brought to Modernism an unspoken philosophy that allowed for the free flow of nature and built forms, so that the one was not dominated by the other. The undulating and amorphous buildings of Oscar Niemeyer are perhaps the best known expressions of this philosophy, in which the typical straight line of Europe’s Modern home becomes a graceful arabesque. Casa Modernista features not only the work of Niemeyer, but also that of the most important modern architects of this extremely rich, multifaceted nation, including Affonso Eduardo Reidy, Jorge Machado Moreira, Carlos Leao, Alvaro Vital Brazil, Paulo Mendes da Rocha, Joao Walter Toscano, and Abrahao Sanovicz.

Résumé:
Italo Rota was born in 1953 in Milan and graduated from the Milan Polytechnic Institute in 1982. In 1980, he and Gae Aulenti created the plans for the Musee d’Orsay and the Centre Beaubourg in Paris. In 1990, he initiated the planning for the Center for Postgraduate Studies at Columbia University. His return to Italy marked the beginning of a highly creative phase, including projects that ranged from museum installations, the "Maison Cavalli" (the showroom-cafés in Miami, Milan, and Moscow), to a series of public buildings in Italy and India. This book focuses on a recent decade of Rota’s work and is aimed at professionals and lovers of architecture, fashion, and design.

Résumé:
In the academic year 2000-2001, Yale professor and New York City based architect Peggy Deamer led two innovative courses: first, a focused seminar on the state of contemporary residential design; second, a creative studio offering house designs that drew on the discoveries of the seminar. This book, the second in a series documenting work at the Yale School of Architecture, combines work from both courses in a thoughtful and provocative study of the state of the house at the turn of the millennium. Deamer introduces the volume with an essay on three issues vital to a discussion of millennial design: newness, uniqueness, and design innovation. Designs of visiting seminar critics -- Steven Holl, Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio, William McDonough, LOT/EK, Winy Maas, and Jacques Herzog -- are showcased along with descriptive and analytical texts. Work from the studio course is divided into various themes explored by the students: image, standardization and modularity, networks and diagrams. The hybrid quality of this volume -- designs by practicing architects and students; observation and interpretation -- reflects debates and issues at the heart of early-twenty-first-century architecture.
