Résumé:
Though inextricably linked with digital tools and culture, Antoine Picon argues that some significant traits in ornament persist from earlier Western architectural traditions. These he defines as the ‘subjective’ – the human interaction that ornament requires in both its production and its reception – and the political.

Résumé:
In galleries and museums, one’s perception of art, space, and atmosphere is largely determined by lighting. But which light settings should art and museum experts and exhibition designers choose, and on what basis are those choices made? Pioneering LED technologies make customized lighting scenarios possible, turning artificial light into an interactive material in museum architecture – not only in terms of design practice, but also in terms of real-time spatial experiences. Computer-controlled lighting technologies are breaking boundaries, allowing the individual to take full control of lighting design. ''Light Up'' explores the potential of dynamic artificial lighting technologies in museum architecture, offering new insights into the use of light in exhibition spaces.

Résumé:
"KA ME RA" introduces Japanese-architecture enthusiasts to the nine photographers who have been instrumental in shaping the way we view the country’s spectacular postwar buildings. Through the illustrated pages, readers can "travel" across the nation to witness its most astonishing structures through the eyes- and camera lenses-- of these remarkable artists. But can documenting buildings in this way ever be entirely neutral? Author and Japanese architecture expert Ari Seligmann examines the post-World War II evolution of architectural photography in Japan as a vehicle for considering both universal and culturally specific concepts of the world through images. Through a veritable feast of exquisitely printed pictures, he grapples with the scope of architectural photography, recognizing that it is more than producing marketable images for architects and magazines, but neither is it a strictly historical record.

Résumé:
This comprehensive guide to modern Brazilian architecture takes us on a tour of over 125 buildings and projects designed between 1928, the year of Gregori Warchavchik's historic Paulista House, and 1960, the year the capital of Brasilia was inaugurated. Works by thirty-three architects, including renowned figures such as Oscar Niemeyer and Paulo Mendes da Rocha and lesser-known architects like Flavio de Carvalho and Lina Bo Bardi, are presented in this guide. Each entry provides photographs, drawings, a brief description, and information on visitor access. When Brazil was Modern is a complete survey of the country's modern architectural legacy, and not only fills a forty year-old bibliographic gap on the subject, but also sheds new light on the aesthetics and social underpinnings of Brazil's modern architecture. By including the unconventional and experimental, author Cavalcanti challenges the very definition of what was modern, in Brazil, the Americas, and elsewhere.

Throughout the world, despite the increasing materialism of largely secular societies, churches continue to attract travelers, historians and worshippers. Edward Norman's chronological survey are supported and enhanced by a researched collection of illustrations and photographs. The result is a perfect mix between the most-loved master buildings - from Hagia Sophia to Tokyo Cathedral - and the freshness of the less familiar - a mission church in Paraguay, a Baroque shrine in Goa.
