Résumé:
This book examines the work of three seminal Nordic architects - Alvar Aalto, Jørn Utzon and Sverre Fehn - from a phenomenological perspective, utilising the methodology of 'paradigm' (or 'in the manner of''). Roger Tyrrell explains how the approach of each architect is defined by the three sub-frames of the paradigm: that of the ‘origin’ (arche), that of ‘revealing’ (techne), and that of ‘the poetic conjunction’, in order to gain a holistic understanding of the experiential or phenomenological predisposition of the three architects. Using this method the author describes the commonalties and distinctive qualities of the architecture and design methods of Aalto, Utzon and Fehn. The final chapter projects the intellectual heritage of the three protagonists into the contemporary world, examining the work of practices from the UK, Norway and the USA that each extend this particular way of making place.

Modern architects are often condemned for a seeming disregard of site considerations such as climate, topography, and existing vegetation. Noted landscape and architectural historian Marc Treib counters this prevailing view in an authoritative and unprecedented survey of 20th-century buildings and their landscapes.

Résumé:
Modern architects are often condemned for a seeming disregard of site considerations such as climate, topography, and existing vegetation. Noted landscape and architectural historian Marc Treib counters this prevailing view in an authoritative and unprecedented survey of 20th-century buildings and their landscapes. Exploring a range of architectural, philosophical, and theoretical approaches, Treib investigates the site strategies of five prominent modern-period architects: Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959), Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886–1969), Richard Neutra (1892–1970), Alvar Aalto (1898–1976), and Luis Barragán (1902–1988).

Résumé:
Furniture by Architects surveys the twentieth-century tradition of innovative furniture design by architects, which stems into the present as architects continue to design movable furnishings for their buildings, creating aesthetically unified environments. The book poses such questions as: Do architects design differently to product designers? Do they exhibit any consistent aesthetic preferences? Is there something typically architectural in their designs? Furniture by Architects features works by Alvar Aalto, Ron Arad, Gae Aulenti, Karl Bertsch, Emil Beutinger, Marcel Breuer, Pierre Chareau, Egon Eiermann, El Lissitsky, Norman Foster, Frank Gehry, Walter Gropius, Zaha Hadid, Marc Held, Josef Hoffmann, Arne Jacobsen, Le Corbusier, Daniel Libeskind, Gio Ponti, Richard Riemerschmid, Gerrit Rietveld, Eero Saarinen, Mackay Hugh Baillie Scott, O.M.

There’s no master without myth, so it is no surprise that the four most prominent modern architects, the most widely studied at schools, had novel-like lives: moments of genius, crises, stimulating friendships, great women by their sides… Luis Fernández-Galiano discusses all this in the new issue of AV Monographs, which examines the biographies of Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies(...)

Résumé:
There’s no master without myth, so it is no surprise that the four most prominent modern architects, the most widely studied at schools, had novel-like lives: moments of genius, crises, stimulating friendships, great women by their sides… Luis Fernández-Galiano discusses all this in the new issue of AV Monographs, which examines the biographies of Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, and Alvar Aalto. These life journeys originated in a series of lectures delivered in 2010 at the Fundación Juan March in Madrid, which had a great turnout and have continued to draw considerable attention ever since, thanks to streaming. As with ‘Four Cities’ (AV 259), this success with audiences has encouraged to document the talks in print, maintaining the natural pace and graphic profuseness of slide presentations.
