This publication accompanies feature 36 current architectural projects throughout Spain. The projects are seen in relation to 16 other major architectural accomplishments recently completed in Spain. They reflect diversity in the geography of their sites; in scale, from private houses to a new international airport; and in the architects who have conceived them, from relative newcomers to established practitioners, both Spanish and from other countries in Europe, Asia, and the United States.

Résumé:
Depuis la découverte de la caverne, les hommes n’ont cessé d’utiliser les formations géologiques qu’offre notre planète. Il a fallu cependant attendre une date récente pour que des avancées dans le domaine de l’ingénierie structurelle permettent de considérer la surface de la terre comme un élément architectural à part entière. La prise de conscience de la raréfaction des ressources naturelles et l’influence grandissante des architectes paysagistes ont également incité certains créateurs parmi les plus prestigieux à inventer des formes qui s’intègrent à la topographie naturelle d’un lieu, la déploient, la subliment et à créer ce que l’on pourrait appeler des gratteterre en opposition aux gratte-ciel. Du terminal de tramway de Zaha Hadid en France à la bibliothèque d’Alexandrie de Snøhetta en Egypte, de la maison nichée dans une colline du Pays de Galles de Future Systems au Spencer Theatre d’Antoine Predock aux Etats- Unis, les cinquante projets présentés dans ce livre révèlent l’importance de cette nouvelle voie architecturale.

Résumé:
In "Wendy Evans Joseph : Pop-Up Architecture", six of Joseph’s most outstanding and award-winning architectural and interior design projects are brought to life in 3-D. From a Japanese-inspired home observatory, to a quiet, contemplative memorial garden, to a modern, cantilevered pedestrian bridge, each of the pops in the book allows the reader to engage with Joseph’s work in a new way. The pops themselves are minimally illustrated in solid-colored or lightly patterned paper to suggest the materials used in the construction — aluminum, cedar, terrazzo, steel — while photographs serve as the background design and provide additional views of the structure. Accompanying each pop is a text offering a brief discussion of the inspiration behind the work and some of the challenges Joseph and her team faced during the development and construction phases.

Résumé:
Because United Colors of Benetton’s core business is clothing, the contemporary culture of design plays an important role in the group’s activity, including its corporate architecture. Benetton’s international brand style - combining colour, energy, and practicality - can be seen first in its buildings. In 1964, long before it was fashionable for designers to employ brand-name architects, Lucianno Benetton chose two very young and ambitious architects, Afra and Tobia Scarpa, to design his first textile factory. This project marked the beginning of a vision of architecture aimed at enhancing the workplace: an architecture where image and substance come together. This unique book, brilliantly designed by Massimo Vignelli, brings together all of the Benetton buildings, including plans, 500 colour illustrations, superb photographs by Antonia Mulas, an interview with Luciano Benetton, and a chapter dedicated to Tadao Ando’s Fabrica building. With text in English, French, Spanish, German, and Japanese.

Résumé:
Precast prestressed concrete (PC) and steel are the two structural materials that have been considered for the production of honeycomb tubes. While this book was created to introduce the concept of steel honeycomb tubes, in this introductory chapter we present honeycomb tube structures that feature precast prestressed concrete (PC honeycomb tubes) dubbed as 'HTA' (Honeycomb Tube Architecture), which served as precedent. In addition to a summary of Honeycomb Tube Architecture, a book published in December 2006 to exhibit concepts of PC honeycomb tubes, here, we present the results of tests on a 1/3 scale mock-up of the structural system that were conducted in April 2007 along with actual works of architecture being planned for execution.
