Résumé:
In an age of digital cameras and computer renderings, the tradition of drawing and assembling an architectural sketchbook seems at once either willfully eccentric and or charmingly retrograde. But its profound importance to architecture and urban planning endures. Italian Cities and Landscapes is a compact and lovely sketch book created by architect William H. Fain during a six month fellowship at the American Academy in Rome. Exploring the Italian city and countryside by bicycle, Fain used colored pencil to sketch scenes of the street life, the magnificent landscapes, and the architectural marvels of Italy. Italian Cities and Landscapes shows that for the creative individual, documenting travels through drawing continues to be a valuable means of learning to see, understand, and design.

Ce livre chronique une agence d’architecture compilant l’anecdotique de chaque projet pour les ré-assembler dans une tournure documentaire. L’agence GPAA documente en un carnet d’illustrations de 250 pages les projets, des plans à la maquette, du chantier au bâtiment fini. Les projets sont présentés chronologiquement, les uns avec les autres. L’idée développée est que le temps d’une agence d’architecture n’est pas linéaire et que le travail sur un concours peut influencer l’évolution d’un bâtiment en chantier. L’objet de ce carnet est de suivre le processus de conception architecturale au quotidien, de suivre sa temporalité, de déplier le télescopage des idées, des influences et d’une équipe sur 10 ans d’agence. Pendant deux ans et sous influence poétique d’Emmanuel Hocquard, Gaëlle Péneau a créé des temps de discussion autour de mots-clés, puis a invité chacun à créer son photo-roman.

Their solutions are often criticized for being overly prescriptive, opposed to growth, or nostalgic, respectively. Suburban Transformations offers an alternative to these practices while synthesizing many of the ideas and proposals that they put forth. Five case studies provide fully expressed examples of the process, beginning with a sophisticated system of mapping and culminating in computer projections of likely future outcomes, giving the designer the ability to project changes in the community fabric and adding that knowledge to the designers kit of place-making tools.

Résumé:
Grant Jones, founding principal of the noted landscape architecture firm Jones – Jones, has practiced ecological design for more than 30 years and has been a pioneer in river planning, scenic highway design, zoo design, and landscape aesthetics. The latest addition to our successful Source Books in Landscape Architecture series, Grant Jones/Jones – Jones ILARIS, focuses on Jones's "green print" plan for Puget Sound in Washington State. Working in collaboration with the Trust for Public Lands and using new GIS technology, Jones – Jones developed the software tool ILARIS. This CAD-like tool helps to evaluate the aesthetic resources of landscape regions and is used as a basis for future planning. The Puget Sound model can be applied to other landscapes at risk. Including an interview with Grant Jones, critical essays discussing his work, as well as numerous diagrams, plans, and photographs, Grant Jones/Jones – Jones ILARIS is a thorough study of an important project.

Bierut is widely considered the finest observer on design writing today. Covering topics as diverse as Twyla Tharp and ITC Garamond, Bierut's texts pull design culture into crisp focus. He touches on classics, like Massimo Vignelli and the cover of The Catcher in the Rye, as well as newcomers, like McSweeney's Quarterly Concern and color-coded terrorism alert levels. Along the way Nabakov's Pale Fire; Eero Saarinen; the paper clip; Celebration, Florida; the planet Saturn; the ClearRx pill bottle; and paper architecture all fall under his pen. His experience as a design practitioner informs his writing and gives it truth. In "Seventy-nine short essays on design", designers and nondesigners alike can share and revel in his insights.
