Exploiting their intuition for context and for the needs of users, they design buildings tailored to specific locales, each characterized by two principal traits: a conspicuous delight in narrating the residential biography of the respective town, and a sensual approach to color in space. Through selected works, the exhibition “Secrets of Dwelling: What Drives the Hermit Crab into the Cozy Sanctum?” suggests how residential development can be straightforward and functional on the one hand, yet individualistic and personalized on the other.

Anthony McCall’s works can be defined as half way between sculpture and cinema.

Sculpture because the shapes fill a three-dimensional space, and therefore one can move around them or walk through them; cinema because the shapes and spaces are made of projected light, that little by little changes its form in time. The book “Breath [the vertical works]” analyses the artist’s works from their aesthetic peculiarities through the creative course of the author. The text by Hal Foster is rich in references to 20th century history and philosophy, and puts McCall’s works in the wide context of contemporary artistic research.

The illustrated monograph gathers all the projects that have been designed by the office and presents them in thematic groups, such as beginnings, landscape, dreams, freedom, transformation and the city – together, these themes are woven into a story that challenges the architects’s proposals. In denying the obvious, the architects seek to emphasise what is essential and specific to each situation and context, while in turn proposing an architecture that celebrates freedom.

By far the most pervasive and affordable building material in the world, concrete has undergone ever-more-widespread dissemination, standardization, and technological innovation in the last twenty-five years. Recent scientific breakthroughs have yielded composites stronger than steel, lighter than water, and as beautiful as natural stone. In Solid States, an interdisciplinary group of architects, historians, theorists, engineers, fabricators, and materials scientists collectively explore the past, present, and future possibilities of this highly calibrated, fluid material. Solid States presents new theoretical and cultural analyses of concrete architecture, both historically and in the context of newly built work.

The sublime underlies the nobility of Classicism, the awe of Romantic nature, and the terror of the Gothic. In the last half-century, the sublime has haunted postwar abstraction, returned from the repression of theoretical formalism, and has become a key term in critical discussions of human otherness and posthuman realms of nature and technology.
