Résumé:
The Architectural League Prize for Young Architects + Designers is an annual competition, series of lectures, exhibition, and publication organized by The Architectural League of New York. For more than thirty years, the League Prize has recognized outstanding and provocative work by up-and-coming North American architects and designers. The 2018 competition theme, Objective, suggested that the topic "implies an action" and that "how we act, what our actions achieve, and how we argue for a design speak to our values as a discipline and as a society." The winners'' work exemplifies the diverse ways young architects and designers are pursuing multiple "objectives," from projects that insightfully address social, economic, and political agendas to material and structural experimentation that inspires innovative design at every scale. Young Architects 20: Objective presents the work of the six winners of the 2018 Architectural League Prize for Young Architects + Designers competition.

Résumé:
This Is Tomorrow was a seminal exhibition of art, architecture, music and graphic design that took place at London's Whitechapel Gallery in August 1956. At its core was a room given over to the Independent Group, the proto-Pop collective comprised of (at various stages) the theorists Reyner Banham and Lawrence Alloway, photographer Nigel Henderson and the artists Eduardo Paolozzi, Richard Hamilton, William Turnbull and John McHale. The Independent Group's room premiered works of Op art alongside film posters, collages, murals, films and a jukebox, and was Britain's introduction to the phenomenon later named Pop. The spiralbound catalogue for This Is Tomorrow was designed by Edward Wright and published by Lund Humphries; out of print since 1957, it has since become a much sought-after rarity and a classic of graphic design and postwar visual culture. This facsimile edition is published for the Whitechapel's 2010-11 reconstruction of the 1956 show.

Résumé:
Claude Matter and Olivier Galletti, two Swiss architects, have developed an essentially pragmatic approach based on sensitivity to location. They begin with an initial concept, not a definitive answer, open to modification during the construction process. The creation of various and distinctive spaces corresponding to situations and demands that crystallize on location, rather than the realisation of a preconceived homogeneous design. This volume, the first in a new series on young architects from Suisse Romande edited by Bruno Marchand, Professor at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, presents built projects by Galletti & Matter, including the School Building Collombey and the Espace Gruyère exhibition and cultural centre in Bulle.

Résumé:
Published on the occasion of the exhibition at Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery, this catalogue chronologically overviews more than 20 notable works by the Iraqi-British architect, spanning the 1980s to the present, and from small-scale to the MAXXI. The fragmented geometry of her neofuturistic buildings carries into other aspects of her work, and a range of exemplary product design by Hadid from the past decade is also featured. Interviews from 1995 and 2007 allow critical insight regarding Hadid’s own reflections on global economic shifts and their impact on architectural practice over time. An essay by Patrick Schumacher examines the singular architect’s legacy in further detail.

Résumé:
Catalog published on the occasion of the exhibition "Ottoman architecture of the 16th century: mosques of Sinan. Drawings by Augusto Romano Burelli and Paola Gennaro", september-november 2008, Frankfurt, Deutsches Architekturmuseum. The architect (1489-1588) was a master mosque builder who employed perfect proportions to create astonishing lightness in architecture--especially in his gravity-defying cupolas. He is renowned for having borrowed Roman and Byzantine techniques in order to create something new in mosque design--centralized organisms of absolute space, unhindered by pillars or columns. This beautifully illustrated volume, which features stunning reconstructed architectural renderings and diagrams, is the first to fully analyze his method.

While, for many architects, drawing is a functional tool in the development of specific building projects, Sir Peter Cook (born 1936) has used the medium throughout his long career to channel his boundless imagination. From those made in the 1960s at Archigram to the present day, Cook's colorful, highly detailed images resonate beyond the architectural sphere, as seen in(...)

Résumé:
While, for many architects, drawing is a functional tool in the development of specific building projects, Sir Peter Cook (born 1936) has used the medium throughout his long career to channel his boundless imagination. From those made in the 1960s at Archigram to the present day, Cook's colorful, highly detailed images resonate beyond the architectural sphere, as seen in his major solo exhibition at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in 2022. Cook's work pushes the boundaries of architectural norms of design and construction, with the freedom to imagine buildings, communities and cities that are, as he succinctly puts it, "possible or maybe nearly possible, but importantly, not consciously impossible."

Museums rarely present objects as migrants. Yet they often arrive there by way of a migratory process, a historical echo of the flows of migration that have dominated the news over the past decade. As individuals migrate, so do cultures, skills, religions, ideas, objects, and materials. This is nothing new, and yet its recent acceleration forces us to think about a world(...)

Résumé:
Museums rarely present objects as migrants. Yet they often arrive there by way of a migratory process, a historical echo of the flows of migration that have dominated the news over the past decade. As individuals migrate, so do cultures, skills, religions, ideas, objects, and materials. This is nothing new, and yet its recent acceleration forces us to think about a world in which migration is a constant and the traditional distinction between “native” and “immigrant” is of less relevance. Published together with an exhibition at the Röhsska Museum of Design and Craft in Gothenburg, this volume examines these shifts and how they continuously influence how knowledge is formed.

Résumé:
Digital devices gather real-time data about urban space with sensors, actuators, and artificial intelligence. We have entered the era of the ''eyes of the city,'' when each of us must negotiate everyday life under the omnipresent gaze. Following up on the eponymous exhibition at the Bi-City Shenzhen Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture 2019, this book examines the relationships between cities and digital technologies across various disciplines. As the Internet of Things dramatically expands its reach, touching upon critical issues including individual anonymity, data ownership, and design by proxy, how can designers, architects, and urban stakeholders see eye to eye with our artificial counterparts?

Résumé:
This book closely examines 25 of Eliasson's books dating back to 1997, and reveals a whole oeuvre of artist's books—57 titles in all—that will come as a revelation to those who may not closely identify the artist with this medium. Eliasson's exhibition catalogues are always designed with pronounced care, and many are already long out of print or hard to find. Here, in spreads and thorough annotations, we encounter his considered musings on book form and design, and the complex process of book collaboration. Printed Matter also supplies a bibliography of all of Eliasson's books to date, alongside an interview with the artist.
