According to the foreword by Aart Oxenaar, director Amsterdam Academy of Architecture, architects must now adopt "a sober-minded, enterprising, inventive and self-critical attitude in redefining [their positions] within the design field and within a social and physical reality undergoing transformation." In a clear, cleanly designed format, this book presents a series of reflections to give various perspectives on this reorientation and change of attitude which has occurred within the profession in recent years. Contributors include Mark Hendriks, Machiel Spaan, Ruurd Roorda, Jeroen Kooijmans, Jan Jongert, Arjan Klok and Jan van Grunsven, among others.

Wood has a centuries-long tradition as well a huge potential for future use as a highly versatile building material. Crafting Wood: Structure and Expression presents newly gained knowledge on timber construction and on timber joints in particular.This book?lavishly illustrated with plans, sketches, and photographs?emerged from an international educational cooperation of the University of Liechtenstein in Vaduz, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology NTNU in Trondheim, and the Academy of Architecture in Amsterdam. The program treated a vast range timber joints from diverse theoretical and practical aspects. Students conceived and made by hand new joints that were then applied in prototypes for entire structures, designed also as part of the course, at a scale of 1:5. The volume analyzes this learning process and offers a new introduction to the topic of timber joints in architecture through text and images.

Crafting the Façade präsentiert die Ergebnisse eines internationalen Kooperationsprojekts der Universität Liechtenstein, der Mackintosh School of Architecture in Glasgow und der Academie van Bouwkunst in Amsterdam. Drei Jahre lange wurden verschiedenste Aspekte des Themas Fassade behandelt, von historischen Entwicklungslinien über Techniken des Zusammenfügens bis hin zu Fragen des Materials. Neben Entwurfsprojekten von Studierenden, der theoretischen Arbeit und Exkursionen wurden auch handgefertigte Zeichnungen im Massstab 1:10 erstellt sowie 1:1-Prototypen der Fassaden in Stein, Ziegel und Holz gestaltet und gefertigt.0Dieses Buch stellt die Früchte der internationalen Kooperation im Rahmen des europäischen Erasmus-Programms detailliert vor. Es analysiert die Lernprozesse und bietet in Bild und Text Anleitung zur vertieften Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema Fassade in der Architektur.

Four students of third bachelor of architecture from KU Leuven, Faculty of Architecture, campus Sint-Lucas Ghent and Brussels (Ruth Pattyn, Hannelore Pauwels, Fran Pieters and Sofie Perneel) participated in this year’s edition of the annual Erasmus IP 'Tectonics/Structures in Building Culture'. It was held in the Liechtensteiner Alps and brought together students from 8 different countries.The goal of the program is to engage students in design and construction on scale 1:1 using one type of material. Projects are developed from the material itself and from within the physical actions of manipulating and transforming it. Therefore, the construction process with it's technical operations of shaping, cutting, assembling, arranging, joining and so forth, cannot be considered as being merely instrumental for the conversion of a pre-defined and virtual project into a real architectural object, but needs to become a genuine design process in itself. Creativity has to be looked for and found in and during the physical acts of a process of making, rather than in preliminary projection and simulation in the abstract realms of paper and models at a reduced scale. Throughout this process unexpected things are due to happen and always do. The reason for this is as simple as it is fundamental and amounts to the presence of the material - with its unique character - as a real partner in the process of creation. After lightweight skeleton construction with steel bars last year, this year's source of inspiration, captured by the heading 'crafting wood', was the Alpine tradition of solid timber architecture based on the principles of stacking and interlocking solid pieces of wood. On two building sites, two in a hamlet and two in a meadow, on the mountain slopes overlooking the Rhine valley, 32 students and 8 teachers engaged in the design and building of four mountain huts. For each of the huts, the students had to design and develop a construction system, the architectural and technical details as well as the process, i.e. the method to construct as a series of operations as well as the organisation and management of the site, the material flows and the concerted actions of all the people involved.Unfortunately we did not have the time to finish them before leaving the mountain, but a local construction firm is due to take over in order to make them complete. Their life together with the mountain and the inhabitants of Tuass and Münz will start by the beginning of upcoming winter
