Résumé:
The five-volume set "Food for architects" is dedicated to the buildings and recipes of the renowned Zurich-based firm Steib Gmür Geschwentner Kyburz Partners. As enthusiastic housing designers, they have been searching for both the perfect floor plan and the perfect spaghetti for three decades. Volume 1 of this first comprehensive book on the firm’s work brings together brief personal texts on the various types of rooms in a house or apartment as well as other aspects of living. Volume 2 offers insights into the evolution and design methods of Steib Gmür Geschwentner Kyburz Partners, documenting sixty-five key buildings and projects from their portfolio. Volume 3 features floor plans of a total of 168 furnished apartments with concise comments, interspersed with recipes for twelve spaghetti dishes. In a photo essay, volume 4 introduces the inhabitants of eleven apartments from various realized buildings, who also speak about their homes in brief interviews. The dessert of this five-course menu is the concluding volume 5, featuring a conversation with the firm’s four partners—Jakob Steib, Patrick Gmür, Michael Geschwentner, and Matthias Kyburz—as they discuss topics that are key to their architectural work.

Résumé:
Hermann Czech, born in 1936, is one of Austria’s most eminent and influential architects and theorists. This influence is based not only on his work as a designing architect; Czech is also widely admired for his writings on architectural theory and as the editor and translator of architectural history classics. This book is the long-awaited updated and expanded English edition of the only complete examination of Hermann Czech’s work to date. First published in German in 2018, it goes far beyond a mere presentation of an architecture practice’s buildings and projects. The first part traces what links Czech’s work to the approaches of Viennese modernism. The second part explores Czech’s biography and the trajectory of his career, analyzing the contemporary influences that shape his thinking and designs. The third part features selected buildings, unrealized projects, and Czech’s numerous references and underlying reflections. A complete index of his buildings, projects, and writings, an essay by Vienna-based philosopher Elisabeth Nemeth on the relationship between architecture and philosophy in Czech’s work, and an introduction by architectural historian Liane Lefaivre round off this volume.

One of her key designs is the Obere Schiedhalde, a single-family home above Küsnacht near Zurich. Completed in 1929 and temporarily occupied by Guyer and her family, it is a variation of her legendary SAFFA-Haus of 1928. Between 2012 and 2018, the building and the surrounding garden were extensively and carefully restored by Basel-based architecture firm Christ & Gantenbein together with Sven Richter, cofounder of Richter Tobler Architects in Basel. Working in close collaboration with the Canton of Zurich’s office for the preservation of historic monuments, they also called in experts for a historically conscious overhaul of the building. Together with the current owners, the architects made it their mission to not only preserve this significant architectural monument of Swiss Modernism but also make it accessible to the public through this book. Conceived by graphic designers Ludovic Balland and Annina Schepping, "Lux Guyer—Obere Schiedhalde" offers in-depth documentation of the renovated Obere Schiedhalde.
