Résumé:
The Aedes exhibition and catalogue ''Two Towers,'' dedicated to Álvaro Siza, commemorates his 90th anniversary as one of the most important living architects and a major contributor to contemporary architecture. Siza is famous for his handmade sketches, in which he captures complex situations in order to ease their understanding and resolution. They establish a dialectic rapport between his creative intuition and the material detailing of quality construction. Both the catalog and exhibition illuminate Siza's passion for towers and his fascination with reaching for the sun, while simultaneously focusing on two case studies and their diverging traits: one is taller and the other is shorter, one is private, and the other is public, one is for dwelling, and the other is for protection, one is urban, and the other is rural, one is in reinforced concrete and the other in lightweight steel frame.

Résumé:
Niimori Jamison Architects' work raises some issues and highlights the new desing orientations undertaken by the latest generations of Japanese architects, with the further enrichment of the transnational composition of the office, led by the Japanese Yudai Niimori and the Australian James Jamison. Although the office is still in its initial phase, some lines of work worthy of further development are recognizable: the antithesis between accuracy and 'unfinished', the layering of previous ages withing the new interventions, the absence of protagonism by the architects, in other words the objective analysis of the site.

Résumé:
This publication examines twelve architect-created houses designed between the 1940s and the 1980s for several distinct regions of Canada. The architects chosen number among the most prolific and best known in Canada who were working during this period, including Raymond T. Affleck, Raymond Moriyama, Arthur Erickson, Douglas Cardinal, John B. Parkin Associates, and Patkau Architects. Other architects with perhaps a more regional reputation have also been included, such as the Vancouver-based firm of McCarter & Nairne, Calgarys Jack Long, and Edmontons Peter Hemingway. Apart from the documentation of the twelve houses (drawings and photos), there are interpretative essays on each.

In their famous buildings they live among objects designed by some of the most internationally representative architects and designers. But one day the wolf pays a visit to them...
