Résumé:
Throughout their history, architecture exhibitions have embraced different approaches and constructed other modes of action within the discipline, playing a pivotal role in disseminating, diffusing, and experimenting with architectural culture. This volume looks at curatorial practice in architecture and how ecological issues are addressed in the context of curatorial thinking and exhibition-making. Five architects with a curatorial practice are interviewed (Paola Antonelli, Pedro Gadanho, Paula Nascimento, Maria Otero Verzier, and Paulo Tavares), all of whom contribute to current debates in architecture while exploring how to perceive the main challenges of our world.

Résumé:
Honeycomb architecture is an innovative architectural system formed by a hexangular tube construction.“Honeycomb tube architecture” published in 2006 introduced honeycomb-tube architecture designed from pre-stressed concrete. This volume introduces honeycomb architecture with a steel construction. Change in construction material results a need for a new method of construction. The “fractal geometry” concept is introduced, and is the focal point of this book. Through analysis of experimentation results and detailed data, this book explores how the dynamic honeycomb architecture may be realized through its innovative construction methods and systems. 6 case studies with pre-determined sites and interviews of Nobuaki Furuya, Toshio Otsuki and Hiroshi Ota are also featured. Please enjoy witnessing a further step of honeycomb architecture becoming a reality.

Résumé:
Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio was one of the most influential figures that the field of architecture has ever produced. For classical architects, the term Palladian stands for a vocabulary of architectural forms embodying perfection and beauty. Of even greater significance than Palladio's buildings is his treatise I quattro libri dell'architettura (The Four Books On Architecture), the most successful architectural treatise of the Renaissance and one of the two or three most important books in the literature of architecture. This is the first English translation of Palladio in over 250 years, making it the only translation available in modern English. This new translation by Robert Tavernor and Richard Schofield contains Palladio's original woodcuts, reproduced in facsimile and positioned correctly, adjacent to the text. The book also contains a glossary that explains technical terms in their original context, a bibliography of recent Palladio research, and an introduction to Palladio and his times.

Résumé:
Centered on his synthesis of the American republic's architectural and democratic traditions, Allan Greenberg's essay moves across geography and through history as the renowned architect and scholar makes the case that America's architectural tradition and political ideals are deeply connected. At the core of the American democratic architectural tradition is the modest, single-family house, which gave rise to the statehouse, the courthouse, the firehouse, the schoolhouse, the jailhouse, and the President's house (as it was known before it became the White House).
