Résumé:
At the turn of the last century, the Arts and Crafts movement transformed not only how objects looked but also how people looked at objects. It provided a framework for essential issues that are still debated today: the conflict between standardization and individuality, the question of whether a one-of-a-kind handcrafted object is superior to a mass-produced one, and the problem of defining what kind of design most benefits society. The book features masterworks by the best-known designers of the period, such as William Morris, M. H. Baillie Scott, Henry Van de Velde, Peter Behrens, Josef Hoffmann, Eliel Saarinen, Greene and Greene, and Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as lesser-known examples that have never been displayed together before.

Résumé:
Concrete is now chic, becoming ubiquitous in shops, restaurants, and even homes. The reasons are many, as concrete is a remarkable material that can be used in a huge range of techniques and situations. Its colour and texture vary, it can be very affordable and mass produced, or meticulously crafted and manipulated. New developments and increased understanding of the possibilities of concrete architecture are inspiring contemporary architects and designers across the globe. Concrete Architecture looks at recent architectural projects that use concrete for a huge range of projects, and celebrates the intrinsic qualities of concrete in the places where we live, work, and play. This book is an invitation to re-evaluate concrete as a modern material and generator of construction techniques. Includes examples from the United States, Spain, United Kingdom, Italy, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, Norway, France, New Zealand, Japan, Argentina, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and more.

The latest work by Guy Lafranchi presents new projects for Brazil, Switzerland, Egypt, and Hawaii as well as a number of conceptual projects presented through drawings, paintings, and models. Lebbeus Woods writes of Lafranchi: "I regard his work as original both in substance and approach. The title "Urbanomad" refers to the problems of the past and globalization, problems that many architects talk about, but that only a few, such as Lafranchi, convert into architecture of the highest standard."
