Abstract

Fleuron de la collection, Architecture, méthode et vocabulaire de Jean-Marie Pérouse de Montclos fait autorité en la matière, depuis sa première édition en 1972. Unique au monde, il fait aujourd’hui l’objet d’une nouvelle édition avec un texte revu et enrichi par l’auteur et une iconographie généreusement augmentée et ouverte à la couleur. Ainsi, une relation étroite est établie entre le texte et l’image, tandis que l’appareil de notes précise les références historiques et bibliographiques. Plus de 1 200 illustrations viennent ainsi illustrer quelque 1 200 termes d’architecture classés en trois parties : le vocabulaire général (de la représentation à la construction), les différentes parties d’un édifice (de ses fondations au décor en passant par les baies, les couvertures, les escaliers, etc.) et enfin les différents genres d’édifices (religieux, public, militaire, etc.).

Abstract

"The award-winning First Edition of A Global History of Architecture was a publishing event that forever changed the way architectural history is viewed and studied. This Second Edition surpasses the first with a lavish new design, illustrated throughout with drawings and photographs in full color, and even more maps and diagrams detailing global interconnections. The signature drawings of Francis D.K. Ching are more informative than ever, updated with scale, annotation, and function added where needed. This revision is sure to remain the most relevant book on the topic"--

Abstract

Ästhetik und Konstruktion: das Zusammenwirken von Gestaltung und Technik anhand herausragender Gebäudebeispiele Anlässlich des 50jährigen Jubiläums hat die Redaktion erstmals in einem Band ausgewählte Artikel und Projektbeispiele aus zwei Jahrzehnten zusammengefasst - einem Zeitraum, in dem Verbreitung und Einfluss der Zeitschrift kontinuierlich gewachsen sind, Konzept und Erscheinungsbild beständig weiterentwickelt wurden und in den Jahren 1997 und 98 die behutsame Umstellung von der Hand- zur digitalen Zeichnung erfolgte. Dieser Band veranschaulicht nicht nur die Entwicklung der Zeitschrift selbst, sondern zeichnet kaleidoskopartig auch ein Bild der Architektur der letzten zwei Jahrzehnte, seiner Strömungen und Trends aber auch seiner konstruktiven Eigenheiten und leistet damit nicht zuletzt einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Architekturdiskussion. Wie die Zeitschrift selbst, bietet die Publikation weitreichende Inspirationen und Hilfestellungen für die tägliche Arbeit.

Abstract

Le bureau d’architecture Émile Verhaegen basé à Bruxelles s’est prêté, pour célébrer ses cinquante ans d’activité, à l’exercice consistant à livrer ses constructions au libre regard d’un photographe dont les reportages ont à leur tour inspiré cinq écrivains belges, Paul Emond, Thomas Gunzig, Willy Spillebeen, Bob Van Laerhoven et Hubert van Lier. Ces derniers ont imaginé des histoires de vie parfois surprenantes, émouvantes ou drolatiques, pour rappeler que l’architecture est toujours destinée à être habitée. Les bâtiments ont du reste été choisis pour les fonctions sociales et publiques qu’ils remplissent (maternité, école, usine, station-service, home). La pratique photographique de Sébastien Reuzé, auteur de plusieurs livres parus à La Lettre volée (notamment Constellations et Numéristique), naît d’observations subtiles, d’attitudes contemplatives et d’itinéraires hasardeux. Ses dispositifs photographiques perturbent notre perception et nos relations à l’espace et à notre environnement quotidien.

Abstract

States have long been active in commissioning architecture, which affords one way to embed political projects within socially meaningful cultural forms. Such state-led architecture is often designed not only to house the activities of government, but also to reflect political-economic shifts and to chime with a variety of 'internal' and 'external' publics as part of wider discourses of belonging. From the vantage point of sociology, this context necessitates critical engagement with the role of leading architects' designs and discourses relative to politicized identity projects.Focusing on the mobilization of architecture in periods of social change, The Sociology of Architecture uses critical sociological frameworks to assess the distinctive force added to political projects by architects and their work. Through engagement with a range of illustrative examples from contested contemporary and historical architectural projects, Paul Jones analyses some of the ways in which architects have sought to position their architecture relative to state projects and wider publics. A central objective of the book is to situate major architectural projects as a research agenda for sociologists and others interested in the relationship between power, culture, and collective identities. Adopting a critical approach to such questions, The Sociology of Architecture frames architecture as a field of contestation over symbolic and material resources, which in turn provides an entry point for questioning the inextricably political ways in which collective identities are constructed, maintained and mobilized.

Abstract

A celebration of the lives and careers of forty pioneering designers provides a global tour of the great structures of the world, from St. Paul's Cathedral to the Sydney Opera House and the Taj Mahal. Seven hundred years of architectural innovation make for an international survey of spectacular scope and depth, from the dome of St. Paul's cathedral to the arresting angles of the Sydney Opera House, from the monumental Taj Mahal to Kengo Kuma's attempts "to erase architecture," to fortresses, bridges, and skyscrapers. The contributors include practicing architects and leading academics, and their essays focus on the architects and engineers through history who have shaped and transformed the built environment. More than two hundred illustrations of structures famous, revolutionary, and surprising--including original drawings and prints and modern photography--bring the works to life. Architectural structures both subtle and spectacular have always been designed with an audience in mind, an intent to influence the way we see, think, move, and interact; and the builders themselves can be as fascinating as their creations. Mathematician and visionary, philosopher and ecologist, nationalist, modernist, rationalist, deconstructivist: the characters behind the buildings are many and varied. --- Book Description.

Abstract

Catalogue published in conjunction with the exhibition ‘Work-Place’ produced for the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2010. Studio Mumbai is composed of a few architects and nearly a hundred craftsmen – carpenters, masons, plumbers, electricians, and stonecutters – all working full time. Their work is based on a constant dialogue: “In India, a country with a population of 1,2 billion, the majority of construction is carried out without architects, which does not prevent them from being human in the largest sense. This reflection also forms part of one of our work’s most critical aspect…” reveals Bijoy Jain, the founder of Studio Mumbai. The Studio is a human infrastructure of skilled craftsmen and architects who design and build the work directly. Livre en ligne : http://issuu.com/archizoom/docs/studio_mumbai/23?e=3753097/2912493.
