Résumé:
In this book, the potential of modern architecture renovation in the Global South is explored as a catalyst for self-determination and community-building. It addresses contemporary heritage challenges, questions renovation trends, and reveals gaps in historicization and archiving, while reflecting on the need for new architectural operations due to a lack of infrastructure. It begins with the Oscar Niemeyer Guest House renovation project in Tripoli, Lebanon, by the Beirut-based East Architecture Studio, and includes further case studies, conversations, and visual essays by international experts in architecture, governance, regenerative design, contemporary art, philosophy, and gaming.

Résumé:
Tomorrow’s Houses is a photographed presentation of the modernist houses in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, built during the early twentieth century through the 1960s. From the suburbs of Connecticut to the mountains of New Hampshire and Vermont, modernism in America found some of its earliest, most idealistic, and, later, most refined realizations in houses designed by such masters as Frank Lloyd Wright, Philip Johnson, Mies van der Rohe, Richard Meier, Paul Rudolph, Marcel Breuer, and Walter Gropius, all of whose work is featured in these pages. Photographer Geoffrey Gross has captured in full-color images these composed structures and their appointed interiors, all against the variety of the landscapes of New England.

Résumé:
Modernism, characterized by geometric shapes and flat roofs, is one of the defining architectural styles of the twentieth century throughout the world. And nowhere is it more in abundance than in Faro, capital of Portugal’s Algarve region. There are over 500 Modernist buildings in Faro, the highest concentration of these types of buildings in Southern Europe. The city now has a specific Modernist buildings area, through which guided tours show the full range of detached and semidetached grand houses, large-scale apartment blocks, and little roads of terraced houses that are in fact cleverly disguised maisonettes. The architectural ringleader was Manuel Gomes da Costa, an Algarvian by birth, who had gone to South America in search of work but came back in the 1950s to transform the city. Inspired by the work of earlier architects, including Le Corbusier and Oscar Niemeyer, Costa and his colleagues set about creating a Modernist paradise in the southern sun. This book will give fans of inspirational architecture the first real opportunity to delve deep into Southern Europe’s "Palm Springs."

Résumé:
Emerging in the death throes of colonial rule, the story of ''Tropical Modernism'' is one of politics and power, decolonization and defiance. Its leading proponents, British architects Jane Drew and Maxwell Fry, adapted a utopian Bauhaus-derived Modernist aesthetic to hot and humid conditions. After Independence, ''Tropical Modernism'' was championed by leaders including Jawaharlal Nehru and Kwame Nkrumah as a symbol of freedom, progressiveness and internationalism in monumental projects such as Chandigarh in Punjab planned by Le Corbusier and Black Star Square in Accra designed by Victor Adegbite. Scrutinizing the colonial narratives surrounding ''Tropical Modernism'', and foregrounding the experience of African and Indian practitioners, this book reassesses an architectural style which has increasing relevance in today’s changing climate.
