Résumé:
The villa has always represented a very special architectural undertaking. It offers architects the opportunity to demonstrate their ability and good taste, but also demands a great measure of discipline. Here the Berlin architect Klaus Theo Brenner has collected together a series of 16 prototype designs for villas and country-houses. All the designs are based on a unifying concept, which looks for the specific feature of architecture in a radical, effective overall form. Objects without compromise; characteristic houses, the effect of which is developed before and with the backdrop of nature – a conception opposing and complementing the urban row house. This architectonic picture-story offers a wealth of inspiration for both architects and their clients.

Résumé:
Jakarta Megalopolis focuses on two projects in the title city by artist and architect Stani Michiels and artist Arjan van Helmond. Each grapples with Jakarta's housing culture, the experience of private as opposed to public space and the consequences of city migration, as well as the city's infrastructure, increasing density, and its coherence--or lack thereof--as a whole. As megalopolises in developing countries undergo explosive growth, their cultural, social, political and economic complexities are developing at unprecedented rates. That phenomenon is drawing more and more attention within the world of architecture and art, and Jakarta Megalopolis offers a case study of its complexities, a cutaway view of this chaotic new world.

The use of solar energy in new construction has been growing rapidly, and in response to that success, interest in retrofitting the technology to older buildings is increasing. " Solar Design " features case studies of more than 30 realized projects, demonstrating how photovoltaic systems can be consciously and discriminatingly installed as structural design elements, and creatively integrated into historic buildings, monuments and existing urban landscapes. A survey of relevant technologies proves them increasingly compact and flexible.

Résumé:
Paffard Keatinge-Clay was born near Stonehenge in England, studied in London and Zurich, worked in both Le Corbusier's studio in Paris and at Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin, and then settled in the American West, where he worked for Skidmore, Owings & Merrill before starting out on his own. While he remained in the U.S. until the mid-1970s, and practiced there, his work remains largely unknown even in San Francisco, where he spent more than 20 years. His brand of orthodox Modernism was decidedly out of step with the prevailing Bay Area Modernism exemplified by figures like Moore, Wurster, McCue and Turnbull, who dominated both the academic and professional arenas of the period. Keatinge-Clay had to struggle to execute his own expressive, nonconformist architectural language, and when he did, he garnered minimal recognition. This book brings to light the importance of his work as representative of its time period and clarifies the influences his mentors - including Mies van der Rohe, Richard Neutra and Charles and Ray Eames--had upon it.

Résumé:
The Genovese architect Renzo Piano has designed a museum building — the Zentrum Paul Klee on the outskirts of Bern. Piano was convinced from the outset that he would find the answers to his own questions in the art of Paul Klee. The Center, says Piano, is dedicated to the “poet of silence,” and thus it was only fitting to consider building a museum that would speak softly. Renzo Piano was also inspired by the identity of the location and the gentle, undulating lines of the terrain. The Zentrum Paul Klee rises upward in the form of three hills connected by a 150-meter-long thoroughfare, the “Museumsstrasse” within the museum complex. It is a harmonious yet prominent landscape sculpture featuring a steel construction that supports the roof. In this documentation, Benedikt Lodererprovides a precisely detailed description of Renzo Piano’s architectural idea. With the aid of numerous photographs, design sketches, plans, and models, this book presents an image of a building and its architectural history.

Résumé:
The New York based architect Lebbeus Woods – founder of the Research Institute for Experimental Architecture (RIEA) – concerns himself intensively with architectural theory and experimental architecture. His approach is free from the pressures of specific purpose built projects and rather tends to develop visionary projects which integrate research, philosophy, and art. The subject of his exhibition entitled “System Wien” which he developed in collaboration with Christoph a. Kumpusch is the urban structure of the city of Vienna which he plans to interfere in with specific architectural interventions. This publication - published for the exhibition of the same name in the MAK Vienna - documents the various works comprising the "System Wien" project. It develops an idea that the making of architectuere can be understood as the organization of energy. The project explores how energy relations in public and private city spaces might be represented tectonically in the form of drawings and installations; how existing energy elations in the city can be changed by the input tectonically in the form of drawings and installations; and hoe the future of the city need not depend for creative energy input on the development of building projects requiring large capital investments and institutional approval, but rather on the redistribution of energy at the human scale of the street and the room.
