Résumé:
"Also known as" offers analogies between objects and architecture, finding shared structures in physical things and architectural ideas, to render ideas relevant to a broad design audience. In this collection of written and visual work, Michelle JaJa Chang bridges conceptual frameworks found in architectural design and contemporary representation to examine design technology's social, material, and political effects. In architectural practice, where visual representation typically precedes building, techniques like drawing and imaging do not merely structure appearances. They are schemas, or organizational theories, connecting the abstract to the real. Buildings evidence representation's abilities to show how something is (through description) and how things should be (through projection).

As Mari Lending shows, casts were used to restore wholeness to buildings that in reality lay in ruin, or to isolate specific features of monuments to illustrate what was typical of a particular building, style, or era. Arranged in galleries and published in exhibition catalogues, these often enormous objects were staged to suggest the sweep of history, synthesizing structures from vastly different regions and time periods into coherent narratives. The first comprehensive history of these full-scale replicas, "Plaster monuments" examines how they were produced, marketed, sold, and displayed, and how their significance can be understood today.

Résumé:
The Rise and Fall of Artist's Soho documents how a little-known industrial neighborhood in New York unintentionally became-for a brief period-a lexus of creative activity. Part personal memoir, part cultural history, the book examines how a group of urban pioneers were able to transform a neighborhood, while also creating new and classic works of American art, music, dance, and theater. Taking advantage of loft occupancy laws that allowed artists to live in buildings not available to the general public, a band of enterprising and creative people began settling in New York's SoHo (so called because it lies South of Houston Street), renovating previously industrial spaces for personal living and work space. Fueled by word-of-mouth-and unsupported either by local or national governments or wealthy individuals-the area grew to be a center for artistic creation. This book not only discusses how the artists came and why, it also focuses on some of the most creative, describing both their lives and work. Such an ideal situation-totally unplanned-could not last forever; the author shows how market forces squeezed out this art utopia, to be replaced by a shadow of itself, "SoMall," with the coming of trendy chain stores, boutiques, and restaurants. European tourists crowd the streets, but the real SoHo is long gone, never to be recreated in quite the same way again.

Résumé:
Combining formal argument with informal conversations and design proposals, this title offers creative ideas for "thinking and acting architecture differently." What makes the book unique is the freshness of its voices — young architects and emerging practitioners who for the most part have not published before. Interwoven with their proposals are conversations among these new voices and more established authors and practitioners, including Sanford Kwinter, Sylvia Lavin, K. Michael Hays, Philippe Rahm, Liam Gillick, Teddy Cruz, and Michael Meredith. This publication investigates the inner contradictions tangling and obscuring architectural discourse. It locates architecture in a cultural, social, political, and situational landscape — the space it actually occupies in the contemporary world. Examining architecture as it comes into contact with other disciplines — including art, art history, cultural studies, curating, landscape architecture, neuroaesthetics, pedagogy, philosophy, political science, and urbanism — the book considers architecture's precarious position at the edge : at the edge of its own dilemmas and at the edge of "everything else." In different ways, all the contributors suggest how to understand the innovative possibilities and pitfalls of spatial practices—teasing, analyzing, and celebrating architecture's disciplinary ambiguity — with proposals that range from a "lo-res" architecture to one controlled by the curatorial impulse, from customizable "skins" on residential buildings to the collection of residual space for new uses. Their investigations encompass how to interpret, how to intervene, and how to imagine.

Résumé:
How, in a turbulent century, was Le Corbusier able to reinvent himself at least five times? How was he able to become the Picasso (or Duchamp) of architecture? How was he able to produce work in a regional Art Nouveau mode, then become a leader of the Modern Movement and International Style, then switch to primitive materials and Brutalism before pre-empting Post-Modernism through Ronchamp and Chandigarh, and pre-empting High-Tech and Complexity Architecture through the Centre Le Corbusier and the Philips Pavilion? How?’ These transformations were helped along by the way Le Corbusier was able to cross ideas from one medium to another. A work of architecture could be considered as a written text, a drawing, a model, a photograph, a sculpture, a painting or a detailed set of plans. Each medium challenged, clarified and refined the idea from different viewpoints. Each medium made use of different neurons, of different parts of his mind. The result? Continuous creation from different perspectives, a continual reinvention of architecture. This book brings together leading scholars to explore Le Corbusier’s tactics of self-reinvention, his relationship to the artistic avant-garde and his work as a multimedia practitioner. It also contains an English-language edition of Le Corbusier's 'Poème de l’Angle Droit', complete with beautiful colour lithographs. Authors include Tim Benton, Peter Carl, Hilde Heynen, Charles Jencks, Mohsen Mostafavi, Daniel Naegele, Fernando Pérez Oyarzun, and Stanislaus von Moos.

Résumé:
Most historical and critical discussions of gardens focus on their design. What happens after the completion of the design, however, is largely ignored, which neglects a much larger part of the site's interest and potential. For gardens, John Dixon Hunt contends, are experienced, often by a succession of visitors at different times and often from different cultures; this experience, though determined by the original design and its subsequent modifications, also augments the site's potentialities, and this "afterlife" of gardens comes to enhance the original moment of creation. One way of exploring the experience of designed landscapes is to adapt literary reception theory to the study of gardens. Hunt argues that such an approach via the reception or experience of gardens enlarges how we should understand their significance and meanings. It is generally assumed that the experience of gardens became a prime ingredient of late eighteenth-century landscapes -- picturesque literature especially highlighted how visitors responded to their surroundings, reading inscriptions and recognizing the significance of carefully placed architectural items or fabriqués. But there is considerable evidence for a much earlier interest in how experience came to constitute an essential aspect of a site beyond the intentions of the original designer or patron. Among other early examples, Hunt examines the book “Hypnerotomachia Polifili” (1499) to show how its protagonist is shown exploring and negotiating a series of strange and baffling landscapes. Through other inquiries -- particularly into the role of movement in such different situations as Versailles, and Chiswick or along modern highways – “The Afterlife of Gardens” provides a fresh approach to the study of designed landscapes that goes beyond their production and into how they exist and are understood by their users. In this ambitious new book the author shows how the complete history of a garden must extend beyond the moment of its design and the aims of the designer to record its subsequent reception. He raises questions about the preservation of historical sites, and provides lessons for the contemporary designer, who may perhaps be more attentive to the life of a work after its design and implementation. This book will interest all who have a professional interest in gardens, as well as the wide general audience for gardens and landscapes of past and present.

Smithson’s humanized environments were a powerful indictment of modernist sense of art and nature. Moreover, Graziani shows how Smithson’s earthworks formed part of what was called the ‘new conservationism’ in the late 1960s and how they gave material form to the contradictions of a sociological issue that was inseparable from its economic legacy.
