Résumé:
Often dismissed as "greasy spoons", classic cafes are actually little gems of British vernacular high street commercial design. Here the last remaining enclaves – originally vilified in the 1950's for their embodiment “of corrupt brightness, of improper appeals and moral evasions . . . a sort of spiritual dry rot amid the odour of boiled milk” – are extensively reviewed,(...)

Résumé:
Often dismissed as "greasy spoons", classic cafes are actually little gems of British vernacular high street commercial design. Here the last remaining enclaves – originally vilified in the 1950's for their embodiment “of corrupt brightness, of improper appeals and moral evasions . . . a sort of spiritual dry rot amid the odour of boiled milk” – are extensively reviewed, revealed and reappraised. For 50's Britain, cafes once represented a European dynamism that added much needed colour to Britain’s post-war social, artistic and commercial scene. However, by the late 1970's their original spirit had been extinguished and throughout the 80's and 90's they fell into disuse – despised and forgotten. Today these classic cafes retain a quintessential, poignant quality of lost English drabness and a "contemporary" utilitarian minimalist aesthetic that marks them out as icons of design.

Résumé:
This illustrated guide to 100 of the world's most important concert halls and opera houses examines their architecture and engineering and discusses their acoustical quality as judged by conductors and music critics. The descriptions and photographs will serve as a valuable guide for today's peripatetic performers and music lovers. With technical discussions relegated to appendices, the book can be read with pleasure by anyone interested in musical performance. The photographs (specially commissioned for this book) and architectural drawings (all to the same scale) together with modern acoustical data on each of the halls provide a rich and unmatched resource on the design of halls for presenting musical performances. Together with the technical appendices, the data and drawings will serve as an invaluable reference for architects and engineers involved in the design of spaces for the performance of music. Leo Beranek is an internationally recognized authority in acoustics who has consulted on the design of dozens of important auditoriums around the World. He has received the highest honors of the Acoustical Society of America and of the Audio Engineering Society and has just been awarded the US National Medal of Science at the White House.

Résumé:
Descriptions of the Finnish sauna, the Japanese furo and the North American Indian inipi transport the reader into three bathing cultures which, despite their differences, display surprising similarities. The purpose of the bath extends from simple washing into a spiritual experience: the bather is cleansed internally, restored to health to begin a new life.

Résumé:
Offices, as a category of building, have probably faced more challenges and undergone more dramatic changes in the last few years than most other kinds of buildings. Increasing economic globalization, new information and communication technologies, and ecological considerations are all making demands on a branch of architecture which for nearly a century had been marked by the construction norms and standards, and the requirements of office organisation. These old solutions are, however, no longer viable for many modern companies, where flexibility and mobility determine the working day of a new generation of office nomads, and architecture is having to adapt. With some 70 significant international examples taken from the last five years (including examples from Norman Foster, Frank O. Gehry, Thomas Herzog, Morphosis MVRDV, Renzo Piano, SOM), the authors and editors show how the new issues facing architects can be resolved. In addition to introductory texts there are also thematic contributions by experts in various disciplines on related topics including the new models of work organisation, façade technology, climatic regulation, lighting etc. Similar to our enormously successful Floor Plan Atlas, this volume will be a crucial standard work in the design of offices.
