Résumé:
How our medical obsessions and the image of the body influence modern architecture. This book explores the impact of medical discourse and diagnostic technologies on the formation, representation and reception of modern architecture. It challenges the normal understanding of modern architecture by proposing that the architecture of the early 20th century was shaped by the dominant medical obsession of its time: tuberculosis and its primary diagnostic tool, the X-ray.

Résumé:
Qu'elle soit contemporaine ou traditionnelle, l'architecture japonaise est une source d'inspiration pour les architectes et designers à travers le monde. La scène architecturale japonaise est, depuis quelque temps, au coeur des débats, notamment grâce au travail de jeunes artistes visionnaires allant à l'encontre des standards contemporains aussi bien en Europe qu'aux Etats-Unis. Des musées aux demeures privées, en passant par les nouveaux bureaux, les immeubles universitaires, les aéroports et les temples ainsi que les écoles, gares et églises, les projets présentés dans cet ouvrage sont très variés. Ces créations sont celles de jeunes cabinets émergents tels que Sou Fujimoto Architects et Junya Ishigami & Associates mais aussi d'architectes renommés comme Toyo Ito, Tadao Ando, Kengo Kuma et SANAA. On y trouve enfin des projets de cabinets internationaux localisés au Japon comme ceux de Richard Rogers Partnership, Foster &. Partners, Herzog &, de Meuron. Ouvrage de référence, La Nouvelle Architecture japonaise est un guide essentiel, non seulement pour les architectes et designers mais aussi pour tous les amateurs d'architecture curieux de découvrir la place unique qu'occupe dans ce domaine le Japon face au reste du monde .

Résumé:
This book brings together a diverse range of exemplary architectural projects from across the globe. Carefully selected and examined by a team of experts, these projects demonstrate innovative approaches that respond to the challenges and potentials of contemporary conditions and contexts. One guiding principle of this cycle of the Aga Khan Award for Architecture is the importance of plurality. Since its inception the Award has aimed to be inclusive and to embrace the engagement of a diverse group of users. But equally, it has sought projects that explore a plurality of methods and architectures in achieving that goal. Here, the authors of the essays use that productive tension between architecture and plurality not only to provide a framework for the examination of the projects but also to explore the intellectual and projective means by which architecture and plurality can find other common grounds in the future.

Résumé:
The practice of architecture has become increasingly global, but firms participating in design competitions are finding a culture that is continually in flux. As one of the first two titles in the distinctive "Architecture in Practice" series from Wiley-Academy, this book enables the architect to negotiate the differing rules and processes that govern international competitions. Besides essential strategic material on preparing and presenting an entry, architects will find important tips to help them decide whether to enter a competition. Reviewing the winning case studies, which feature the most recent advances in presentation, graphic design and sustainability, can be a shortcut to success for the design professional. This is an invaluable companion for any architect or student who is intent on growing or establishing their practice.
