Abstract

Diébédo Francis Kéré (*1965 in Burkina Faso) steht wie kaum ein anderer Architekt für das Zusammendenken konstruktiver, sozialer und kultureller Aspekte des Bauens. Nicht nur mit seinen Entwürfen für Christoph Schlingensiefs Operndorf machte er sich einen Namen. Vor allem für die realisierten Bauprojekte in seiner Heimat Burkina Faso erhielt er zahlreiche internationale Preise darunter 2004 den Aga Khan Award for Architecture. In seinen Gebäuden vereint sich seine Ausbildung an der Technischen Universität Berlin mit den traditionellen Baumethoden Burkina Fasos. Dabei stellt er die gesellschaftlichen und historischen Notwendigkeiten vor Ort ins Zentrum seiner Gestaltungskonzepte. Das Innovative: Er setzt auf die Bewohner. Sie werden zu Fachleuten ausgebildet und so zu Konstrukteuren ihrer Zukunft. Die erste Monografie zu seinem umfassenden Werk bietet einen einzigartigen Einblick in das Schaffen dieses herausragenden Architekten und führt vor Augen, dass sich Architektur nicht nur um Gebäude, sondern immer auch um Menschen dreht.

Abstract

"SUDU -- the Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit -- is a full-scale prototype for an affordable two-story house built with local materials and traditional building techniques in Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa. Developed in a collaborative endeavor between the Ethiopian Institute of Architecture, Building Construction and City Development and ETH Zurich, SUDU ties in with the rich tradition of loam construction while at the same time taking a fresh look at how to adapt this tradition to contemporary needs. The first volume additionally explores the history of Ethiopian architecture, the postcolonial nature of its current construction industry, and the challenges of the country's rapid urbanization. The second volume, a manual with more than 600 detailed drawings and instructions, demonstrates how to build a house, step-by-step, with the most readily available building material -- earth"--Page 4, cover.

Abstract

Hassan Fathy is Egypt's best-known 20th century architect. He embraced traditional, vernacular forms, techniques, and materials and throughout his career promoted their use as part of a campaign to improve the conditions of Egypt's rural poor. Earth & Utopia chronicles this lifelong commitment through personal interviews conducted by the author, photographs, and drawings from the Hassan Fathy archives, and Fathy's own writings on the subject, many of which are published for the first time. This book will be essential reading for students, academics, and general readers interested in Fathy, and the development of Arab and vernacular architecture, earth construction, architecture for the poor, and sustainability.

Abstract

"For almost 10,000 years man has built in unbaked earth, not only simple dwellings but also palaces, temples and fortresses of the utmost grandeur and durability. This encyclopedic work shows the extreme diversity of this type of architecture from a technical, cultural and historical point of view. After presenting the various types of raw earth constructions (adobe and rammed earth, walls and roofs, columns, etc.), Jean Dethier reveals some of the raw earth masterpieces scattered across five continents, most of which are listed as UNESCO world heritage sites. From the creations of antiquity to those of today, as well as vernacular heritage and modernist works, the book surveys a multitude of building types: monumental structures - the temples and palaces of Mesopotamia, the Great Wall of China, the Great Mosque of Djenné in Mali, Capitagreen in Singapore; large urban developments - the city of Tenochtitlan in Mexico, the medinas of Morocco; housing in Marrakech, Bogota and various European cities; the castle-houses of the Somba people in Togo; Martin Rauch's villas in Austria; and public amenities - sa high school in Bangladesh, a museum in Australia, a market in Koudougou, Burkina-Faso, and many more... The culmination of fifty years of work, this definitive book is illustrated with 600 photographs and about one hundred drawings and architectural plans." [Publisher]
