S'il est un immeuble qui consacre physiquement le statut de capitale de Québec, c'est bien l'Hôtel du Parlement, grand œuvre de l'architecte Eugène-Étienne Taché et lieu par excellence d'exercice du pouvoir politique québécois. Il n'est donc pas étonnant que, dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre de son Plan lumière pour la capitale, la Commission de la capitale nationale du(...)

Résumé:
S'il est un immeuble qui consacre physiquement le statut de capitale de Québec, c'est bien l'Hôtel du Parlement, grand œuvre de l'architecte Eugène-Étienne Taché et lieu par excellence d'exercice du pouvoir politique québécois. Il n'est donc pas étonnant que, dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre de son Plan lumière pour la capitale, la Commission de la capitale nationale du Québec ait rapidement cherché à faire de ce bel ensemble de bâtiments l'objet d'une mise en scène nocture qui en révèle les beautés et lui permette de jouer, de nuit comme de jour, le rôle de panthéon national que lui destinait Taché. À travers l'œil du photographe Eugen Kedl et par la plume de l'auteure Julie Stanton, cet ouvrage invite à la découverte de cet ensemble remarquable, véritable trésor national.

Résumé:
In summer 2001, Potsdam, one of the world’s famous sites of classical garden design, with the beautiful grounds of the Sans Souci Palace, will be staging international contributions which respond to the tasks and challenges in contemporary landscape architecture. A large number of internationally known landscape architects, artists and architects have come together to cultivate 60 hectares of public park, to redesign urban spaces and other sites where historical townscapes and nature conjoin, to develop avant-garde artistic features, and to create the central spectacular exhibition space. This book will present the various parks and artistic interventions in their finished state, accompanied by lavish illustrations and descriptive texts, thus ensuring that the book remains topical thoughout the festival and will be an enduring documentation long after the doors have been closed and the new park with its array of leisure and recreational facitilities has been developed.

Résumé:
The well-known artist Jean Pfaff has undertaken a series of fascinating colour interventions in buildings – documented and analysed here for the first time. Jean Pfaff’s colour interventions in architecture are not just a matter of art in buildings, rather they are an exciting dialogue between colour and space. The chromatic modifications allow materials to assume a different appearance, to seem insubstantial, and they are a vital factor in the visual interplay between inside and outside spaces. Areas of dynamic colours alternate with indirect colour effects and reflections which enrich the ambiance of the building. With expressive photographs and enlightening texts, Heinrich Helfenstein reveals the quality and range of Jean Pfaff’s interventions, using examples including Peter Zumthor’s Kapelle Sogn Benedetg, Meili and Peter’s Timber Industry College, Biel, and Schrodt Architects' office building at Iserlohn.

Résumé:
Everywhere we see evidence of standardisation, the serial production of goods and services, uniformity across the globe, and people are beginning to react against this trend. The wish to alter, modify, improve, and distort the standard model is becoming increasingly apparent, and it applies as much to products, building components or plans for town development, as to cultural commonplaces and rituals. This publication provides reports on some of the rebellious strategies that have been discovered in Paris, Wuppertal, Seoul, and London. Includes interviews with architects in Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Spain, France, and the USA.

Résumé:
At last architects have discovered the free form shape – multiple curved surfaces, which do not exist in Cartesian geometry. What has long been usual in product design is now being adopted in architecture, these shapes are being generated by special software, and then they are subsequently built. Some young and innovative architectural firms have seized the opportunity to expand the boundaries of architectural space, showing a willingness to experiment with the new technology, and these young architects, or "blobmeister" as Wes Jones rather negatively called them, are now moving on to built examples. In this book, 11 examples from Europe, the USA and Japan are presented, showing that far from being out of touch with reality, cyber-architects do transform their dreams into actual buildings, thus concluding the endless alternatives and possibilities implicit in every design. For it is only built architecture which shows true mastery. This volume extensively documents the complex design process, from the digital conception of the designs, the creation of models, to the final photographs of the building sites and the finished structures. Thematic essays give the reader an insight into the history of the digital scene, assessing its influence on architectural culture to date and evaluating its future potential. The accompanying CD-ROM shows dynamic animations.
