Abstract

An Atlas of Another America' is a work of speculative architectural fiction and theoretical analysis of the American single-family house and its native habitat, the suburban metropolis. Mass-marketed and endlessly multiplied, and the definitive symbol of success in America and around the world, the suburban house has also become a global economic calamity and an impending environmental catastrophe. Yet, as both object and idea, it remains largely unexamined from an architectural perspective. This new book fills this gap through projects and essays that reflect upon, critique, and reformulate the equation that binds the house as an object to the American dream as a concept. Adopting tone and format of an historical architectural treatise, it builds upon an eminent lineage of architectural research from Piranesi and Ledoux to Branzi and Koolhaas in which imaginary but not implausible worlds are constructed through drawing in order to reframe reality and reorient the discipline towards new territories of action.

Abstract

Exceptional contemporary houses from Chile to Croatia to China Designing private homes offers architects more freedom than corporate projects to express their ideas and try out new concepts. Conceiving living spaces is not without its own set of challenges, for which architects are forever looking for innovative solutions--rethinking the way we inhabit our home and live our daily lives is all part of the job when designing a house. Nowadays environmental concerns have become crucial in building sustainable structures, changing the playing field quite profoundly. This two-volume publication rounds up 100 of the world's most interesting and pioneering homes from the past decade, featuring a host of talents both new and established, including John Pawson, Richard Meier, Shigeru Ban, Tadao Ando, Zaha Hadid, Herzog and de Meuron, Daniel Libeskind, Alvaro Siza, UNStudio, and Peter Zumthor.

Abstract

This books unfolds the design and realisation process of Verbiest, an architect's house and an artist's workshop in Molenbeek (Belgium) by Brussels- based architecture office AgwA with Maria Evelia Macal Guerra. A set of unpublished work documents including sketches, scale models, plans, and pictures is combined with a set of texts by AgwA's partner Harold Fallon. The theoretical position of a project at the heart of a practice can be sensed in these writings. Beyond the singularity of this remarkable project, the book demonstrates the critical relevance of construction, energy, and circularity in architecture theory and discourse. The book is supported by the KU Leuven Department of Architecture and has been double blind peer reviewed.

Abstract

Le thème de la maison unifamiliale a été l'un des vecteurs de la popularité du Mouvement Moderne, les architectes pouvant y expérimenter des solutions innovantes. Cet ouvrage s'arrête sur sept exemples d'architecture domestique ayant joué un rôle prépondérant et d'avant-garde dans leur pays. Sept maisons et sept histoires qui parlent de leurs habitants et de leurs architectes, de leurs pays et de leurs appréciations. Sont repris dans l'ouvrage : the White house de l'architecte Amyas Connell ; la casa Van Den Broek de Johannes Hendrik Van Den Broek ; la villa Girasole de l'ingénieur Angelo Invernizzi et de l'architecte Ettore Fagiuoli ; the Research House de Richard Neutra ; la casa Ocampo de Alejandro Bustillo ; la casa Duclos de José Luis Sert et la maison Everaert de Jacques Dupuis.
