Résumé:
In Arlesheim near Basel, Switzerland, the architects Klaus Schuldt and Andreas Scheiwiller have constructed five two-storey villas on a communal plot of land - it is no coincidence that their minimalist appearances are reminiscent of the style developed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in the 1920s. Yet it is not just the variation of architectonic elements but also the(...)

Résumé:
In Arlesheim near Basel, Switzerland, the architects Klaus Schuldt and Andreas Scheiwiller have constructed five two-storey villas on a communal plot of land - it is no coincidence that their minimalist appearances are reminiscent of the style developed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in the 1920s. Yet it is not just the variation of architectonic elements but also the arrangement of these houses on this rural site which make "Ensemble Habitat" so interesting. Striking a careful balance between the individual and the general, between diversity and simplicity, this small group of houses can be justifiably considered exemplary.

Résumé:
"La idea construída" réunit les textes les plus intéressants de Campo Baeza, dans lesquels il exprime sa conception de l'architecture. C'est à travers des plans et des textes que l'architecte dévoile les clés de son travail. « Merci à Mies Van der Rohe ou à Le Corbusier pour leurs écrits passionnants qui éclairent leurs oeuvres. Je voudrais donc que l'on comprenne aujourd'hui ensemble tous ces textes. Exprimer clairement ses intentions c'est aussi révéler le sens de l'architecture. Si les idées exprimées deviennent réalité construite c'est preuve qu'elles sont valables et que les mots ne sont pas vains. »

Résumé:
The taste for industrial aesthetics, just one of many reasons for the popularity of industrial conversions today, saw its beginnings during the age of post-war modernism, popularised by architects such as Le Corbusier, Gropius, and Mies van der Rohe. Yet the trend to rethink industrial structures also signals the imbalance of production and consumption that has arisen since the 1970s. Currently, however, rehabilitation initiatives are bringing production back to the city through projects like the thirteen examples in this special issue. Included are the Baltic Station Market by KOKO architects, Zeitz MOCAA by Heatherwick Studio, Malmö Market Hall by Wingårdh, and The Silo by COBE.

Résumé:
Designed in the English Gothic style of its time, the original campus, planned by Chicago architect Henry Ives Cobb, had a commonality of vision that made it equal in quality to the finest in America. As the traditional reliance on the Gothic gave way to modernist styles, the campus was expanded with buildings by such notable architects as Eero Saarinen, Mies van der Rohe, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Walter Netsch. The university's most recent additions include Cesar Pelli's 2003 Gerald Ratner Athletics Center and Rafael Vi–oly's Graduate School of Business complex. Beautifully photographed in full color, the guide presents an architectural walk of this campus distinguished by landmark buildings.

Résumé:
Héritier des contreplongées spiralées du Monument à la IIIe Internationale de Tatline (1919-1920) et contemporain de la créativité filmique d'Octobre (1927), de La Ligne générale (1929) et de deux projets inachevés, Capital (1927-1928) et Glass House (1926-1930), ce dernier aurait dû mettre en abyme l'Architecture et le Cinéma. Fils de l'architecte Mikhaïl Eisenstein (1867-1920), Sergueï Eisenstein (1898-1948) réinvente la transparence de l’« espace cinématographique » (le tournage d'intérieurs, la pellicule, la projection). Mais comme constructiviste et homme de théâtre, il entendait également scénariser la dystopie capitaliste par le biais d’une transformation sociale inspirée par les tours de verre de Mies van der Rohe et Frank Lloyd Wright.
