Résumé:
Total Fluidity collects 10 years of academic design research conducted at the Zaha Hadid master-class at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. Under the leadership of Zaha Hadid and Patrik Schumacher the studio developed a distinct contribution to the emerging style of Parametricism. All elements of architecture become fluid, ready to engage with each other and with divers contexts leading to an overall intensification of relations. This style is architecture’s response to 21st Century network society. The radicality and consistency with which this style is being pursued across all scales and programmes results in an impressive body of work. Academic design research can go deeper and farther than professional work in probing the consequences of a radical design hypothesis. Within academia architects can be more experimental. They can afford to be more principled and more self-critical, avoiding pragmatic compromises.

Résumé:
Japanese architect Kazuyo Sejima (born 1956) has established her Tokyo studio SANAA, cofounded with Ryue Nishizawa, as one of the art world's favorite architectural teams. SANAA has been responsible for some of the most innovative art museums built over the past two decades, from the New Museum in New York and one of the Serpentine pavilions in London to the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art in Kanazawa, which won the Golden Lion in 2004 as the most significant building at the 9th International Architecture Exhibition at the Venice Biennale. In 2010, Sejima and Nishizawa co-curated the 12th International Architecture Exhibition at the Biennale. Hans Ulrich Obrist caught up with Sejima on several occasions throughout the past few years. They discussed her built and unbuilt projects, her collaborations with other architects and artists and the changing role of women within architecture.

Résumé:
This illustrated book looks at why the world's most interesting buildings are becoming the hottest destinations for today's travelers. In the last few decades architecture has become a major focus for travelers, rather than merely a part of a larger itinerary. Illustrated with nearly one hundred color photographs, this series of essays and contributions by scholars, critics, architects, and artists explores the role of architecture in the contemporary tourist imagination. From Mont Saint Michel and the Taj Mahal to Bilbao's Guggenheim museum and the Blur building in Switzerland's lake Neuchâtel, the authors focus on how certain iconic buildings have found their way into the cultural consciousness. At the same time they offer insights as to why other buildings, such as Minnesota's Mall of America and the faux architecture of Las Vegas, have become integral to their regions' tourist economy-and postulate how this success will influence architecture of the future.
OASE 120: Quality settings

Résumé:
'‘Quality'’ is an all-pervasive concept in contemporary architectural practice, yet it is also a somewhat vague notion that can be used for many very different valuations. Talking or thinking about a high-quality built environment opens up new opportunities for critical interpretation and for new social or ecological endeavours. By the same token, the concept of quality(...)

Résumé:
'‘Quality'’ is an all-pervasive concept in contemporary architectural practice, yet it is also a somewhat vague notion that can be used for many very different valuations. Talking or thinking about a high-quality built environment opens up new opportunities for critical interpretation and for new social or ecological endeavours. By the same token, the concept of quality may limit the arena for the evaluation and legitimization of architecture to expert opinions. This issue of OASE considers contemporary processes and environments in which the quality of (public) architecture is negotiated. How do state or city architects, urban quality commissions or design competitions ensure the quality of regional planning? What is the importance of the exchanges and negotiations between designers, experts, mediators and other stakeholders? And how do these ‘settings’ fit into the evolving frameworks of architectural culture, urban or infrastructural policy and the political economy?

Résumé:
This palm-sized book presents two of the most innovative structures of the modern age (and two of the most important art museums)in one package. The book highlights the New York Guggenheim, Frank Lloyd Wright's crowning achievement, and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, recently designed to high acclaim by Frank O. Gehry. One half of the book contains 30 duotone photographs of the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. These images were taken in 1959, shortly after the building's completion, by Ezra Stoller, one of the pre-eminent architectural photographers in the world and the founder of the renowned Esto architectural photography studio. Flipping the book over reveals the other half, which consists of 34 colour images of the Bilbao Museum, taken by Jeff Goldberg, an Esto architectural photographer and winner of the 1999 Institute Honors for Collaborative Achievement from the American Institute of Architects.

Résumé:
Under the title ‘Community Care’, AV Proyectos 128 features six works that cater to specific needs through an attentive and sensitive architecture that prioritizes a collective approach, as show the centers designed by Mae Architects, Vivas Arquitectos, or Dorte Mandrup. Paz Martín, architect and expert in the field, introduces the dossier with an essay that analyzes how assistance can shape the project strategy. Along the same lines, in an interview with the magazine the architect and professor Izaskun Chinchilla talks about the city of care and how the buildings that compose it are not just hospitals and clinics. In the process section, the complex by Herzog & de Meuron in North Zealand is an example of how to depart from traditional hospital building typologies. The issue also analyzes the high-rise construction boom in Albania, with proposals by MVRDV, Valerio Olgiati, and Bofill Taller de Arquitectura, among other firms.

Résumé:
A prominent practitioner, an influential theorist, and an esteemed educator, the architect Peter Eisenman today stands at the center of architectural discourse and debate. This book, a companion volume to "Eisenman inside out : selected writings, 1963–1988", gathers a selection of his later writings. In these texts Eisenman undertakes theoretical analyses, close readings of his own works, and innovative assessments of the designs and writings of other architects and critics. In an introduction to the volume, Jeffrey Kipnis looks closely at Eisenman’s approach toward language and writing, a practice in which architecture itself becomes a form of written theory, as well as at his context within a critical canon that includes Jacques Derrida and Rosalind Krauss. Presenting the range of Eisenman’s important contributions to architectural theory, this collection of nineteen essays provides insight into the architect’s own understandings and methodologies and offers provocative challenges for his readers.

In the space of a few decades, the perception and culture of what an architect can be has evolved from the stereotype of “one man at the helm” to a far more complex and diversified range of possibilities: couples, collectives and teams of all kinds. But it is the ever-growing and ever-more influential presence of women that characterizes the discipline in our time. In(...)

Résumé:
In the space of a few decades, the perception and culture of what an architect can be has evolved from the stereotype of “one man at the helm” to a far more complex and diversified range of possibilities: couples, collectives and teams of all kinds. But it is the ever-growing and ever-more influential presence of women that characterizes the discipline in our time. In the exemplary cases and stories presented and illustrated in this volume, reflecting not only the quality of the architecture but also the great variety of contexts and professional configurations, we find the most important names of the recent past (Zaha Hadid, Cini Boeri, Lina Bo Bardi) and the present (Elizabeth Diller, Kazuyo Sejima, Grafton Architects): women at the head of large firms, who may work alone or who collaborate with other women or a partner, or who are members of collectives.
