Résumé:
The Finnish architect Pekka Helin created his first firm in 1979. In his design approach, he draws in a specifically Scandinavian manner both on functionalism as well as on the organic architecture of Aalvar Alto, Viljo Revell, and Heikki Sirèn, but also Arne Erve. The building material wood plays a prominent role in this extremely clear architecture. The firm creates residential buildings -- often right next to water, where the structure's embeddedness in nature plays an important role in its sight lines -- but also office buildings, for example Nokia's corporate headquarters and the Finnish Modular Office, the tallest wooden office building in Europe. The firm's work also encompasses public buildings such as the Finnish embassy in Moscow and the concert hall and library in Espoo, and even town-planning projects, such as the master plan for the redesigning of the grounds of the former Oslo airport. This book presents twenty-four of the firm's projects organized by typological task, with the focus on life in nature, urban public buildings, residential structures, and various types of workspace.

Résumé:
George Nelson (1908-1986) was a pioneering modernist who ranks with such outstanding American designers as Raymond Loewy, Charles Eames, and Eliot Noyes. Nelson's office produced some of the twentieth century's canonical pieces of industrial design, many of which are still in production: the ball clock, the bubble lamp, and the sling sofa. Nelson also made major contributions to the storage wall, the shopping mall, the multimedia presentation, and the open-plan office system. The author of this definitive biography was given access to Nelson's office archives and personal papers. He also interviewed more than seventy of Nelson's friends, colleagues, employees, and clients, and obtained many previously unpublished images from corporate and private archives. The full range of Nelson's work is represented, from product and furniture design to packaging and graphics to large-scale projects such as the Fairchild house and the 1959 American National Exhibition in Moscow. Because Nelson was a serious and original thinker about design issues, Abercrombie quotes extensively from his published and unpublished writings, offering provocative new material to students of design theory and philosophy.

Résumé:
The sampling of identical elements along with close attention to the choice of materials and issues of sustainability, are themes which consistently return in the architectural designs of Branimir Medic and Pero Puljiz. The two architects, both trained in Croatia and The Netherlands, have followed their own unusual, yet distinct paths since winning the Prix de Rome in the early nineties, which has included partnerships in office of Architekten Cie in Amsterdam. ‘Different Repetitions’ demonstrates through texts and images their multi-sided design talent but also the general cohesiveness of their projects undertaken from the office building Acanthus in Amsterdam to the Cultural Centre in Tianjin, China.

Résumé:
Dedicated to the work of Wespi de Meuron Romeo, a Swiss/Italian office based in Ticino, the southernmost canton of Switzerland. Markus Wespi and Jérôme de Meuron draw as much inspiration from the blend of cultures which surrounds them as from their own architectural philosophy, one which seeks the utmost harmony between forms of habitat and nature. The houses the office has conceived and realized are natural elements of the landscapes in which they are situated. Distinctive in the use of materials, especially bare concrete and natural stone, their particular qualities are presented here in an array of large photographs, renderings and technical drawings.

Résumé:
The London-based NaJa and deOstos architecture office was founded by Nannette Jackowski and Ricardo de Ostos as a platform for experimental architecture. The architects run their office as a studio that tackles the challenges arising from the manifold possibilities presented by urban situations and social dynamics by developing alternative urban concepts. One of their projects is the "Hanging Cemetery of Baghdad”, which they have continuously developed since 2004. In his introduction, Peter Cook says that as an architect, one could essentially go into denial in view of the harrowing situation in Baghdad. NaJa and deOstos research the situation and react with the language of experimental architecture.
