The Hill House is arguably Charles Rennie Mackintosh's residential masterpiece. Scottish architect, Mackintosh and his wife Margaret created almost everything from the building itself to the furniture and textiles. A prominent example of the Modern Style (British Art Nouveau), Hill House was designed and built for the publisher Walter Blackie in 1902-1904. Until recently, this iconic building was suffering prolonged decay from over a century of weather damage. Mackintosh was a revolutionary designer, however the materials and techniques at the cutting edge of architectural design in the early 1900s have not withstood the test of time. This publication also features 'The Box', created by London-based architectural practice Carmody Groarke. Made of stainless-steel chain-mail mesh, this 'temporarily museum' shrouds the Hill House as a protective enclosure, halting the decay while maintaining access to visitors and providing time for the restoration of this gem in Scotland's architectural heritage.

This book, edited by David Chipperfield, documents his most important project to date: the Neues Museum, the centrepiece of the Berlin Museumsinsel. Here he connects the old and new in a completely novel way. As he says himself, he proceeded like a painter, who painstakingly considers every dab of paint. Photographs by Candida Hofer show the rooms after their completion and before they were furnished. As Hofer avoided using artificial light, the rooms are bathed in a soft natural light. These critical moments are perfectly reproduced in the book as matt colour plates. The photographer is inspired by the empty rooms and grandiose corridors of space to then dedicate her attention to the architects interventions. This artistic-photographic documentation is complemented by texts from well-known architects, architectural historians, art historians and conservation architects. They highlight the fundamental principles of the project of conservation and complementation. Kenneth Frampton discusses the almost historical endeavour to restore such a building and responds to Chipperfields architectural interventions, purely abstract forms that avoid any trace of kitsch. Joseph Rykwert describes the fragmented history of which this building is evidence, thanks to its many layers. There is an interview with David Chipperfield by Wolfgang Wolters that imparts insights into the problems and questions that the restoration posed, and in his contribution, Thomas Weski takes a closer look at Candida Hofers photography. In addition, a chronology offers an overview of the history of the building, the request for proposals for its reconstruction and the restoration itself.
