Abstract

In 1984, German furniture-maker Axel Bruchhäuser reached out to architectural duo Alison (1928-93) and Peter Smithson (1923-2003) with a playful letter ostensibly written by his cat and addressed to theirs. The letter between cats inquired about commissioning the Smithsons to build several lookouts on Bruchhäuser's home, known locally as the "Hexenhaus" (the "Witches' House"--a common name in the area where the Brothers Grimm wrote their fairy tales). Started in 1986 and completed in 2001, and located in a dense forest in Hessen, the renovation that the Smithsons undertook constituted an example of what they called "law of the conglomerate." Step by step, the house was expanded and opened to admit the light as well the trees, which became part of the interior. The house's primary materials are wood and glass, providing a poetic example of latticework and a stunning use of natural light.

Abstract

Suite au travail réalisé dans le cadre de l’atelier dirigé par Jeannette Kuo à l’École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne au printemps 2012, cet ouvrage traite de l’évolution typologique des intérieurs de bâtiments de bureaux de 1880 à 2012. Il est basé sur 20 études de cas illustrées de coupes, plans et photographies. Neuf contributions, une interview (Ines Lamuniere) et une bande dessinée (Jimenez Lai) sont suivies par la présentation du travail des étudiants de l'Ecole Polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Contributions d’Inaki Abalos, Pier Vittorio Aureli, Andrea Bassi, Florian Idenburg, Jeannette Kuo, Freek Persyn, Antoine Picon. Les architectes des bâtiments étudiés sont, entre autres, Frank Lloyd Wright, Kenzo Tange, Giuseppe Terragni, Le Corbusier, SANAA, Herzog & de Meuron, Toyo Ito, Christian Kerez.

Abstract

Team 10, 1953 - 1981, In search of a Utopia of the Present is the first publication about the ideas and work of Team 10 - the group of European architects who took a leading part in the debate on cities and architecture in the 1950s and 1960s. The project will bring together the various protagonists of Team 10 with a focus on the most active members: Alison and Peter Smithson from England, Aldo van Eyck and Jaap Bakema from the Netherlands, Giancarlo de Carlo from Italy and Georges Candilis and Shadrach Woods from France. Research into hitherto closed collections and archives has brought new insights and a considerable number of unknown documents.Team 10 was of great importance for the development of post-war architecture and urbanism. It was Team 10 who first questioned the large-scale, technocratic and abstract nature of modernist architecture and who argued for the introduction of the human scale, the importance of community, and the perspective of a continuous process of transformation of place instead of the production of finished buildings. Their influence on subsequent generations of architects has been immense, and one could argue that many of the achievements of the discipline since the 1970s were made possible by the issues and designs defined by Team 10.
