Lewerentz Sigurd
This book is a monographic study of Sigurd Lewerentz, one of the major architects of the Swedish Modern School, who developed a sensitive and distinctive response to the most important architectural movements of the last century. Lewerentz was a master of religious architecture, his most remarkable designs are the chapels of St Knut and St Gertrud in the Malmo cemetery (begun in 1916), the conservation of the cathedral of Uppsala, on which he worked for nearly ten years (1947-55), and the church of St Peter at Klippan (1962-6). The first section of the volume includes a critical essay by Colin St John Wilson and a previously unpublished essay on the work of the Swedish master by Nicola Flora, Paolo Giardiello and Gennaro Postiglione. The central section contains a catalogue of Lewerentz's works: about 150 designs and constructions, in chronological order, are presented through detailed descriptions and illustrated by both photographs and drawings. A complete list of works and a bibliography based on research in the archives of Stockholm's Museum of Architecture conclude the volume. This study of Lewerentz is the most original and comprehensive published to date, with a full treatment of unbuilt projects as well as completed buildings.

Skidmore Owings Merrill 1936
This monograph surveys thirty of the most iconic buildings designed by Skidmore, Owings &, Merrill (SOM), the legendary American architecture firm, since its founding in 1936. Along with such architects as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier, SOM is largely credited with propagating the Internationalist style of architecture that filled the New York skyline with such mid-century masterworks as Lever House (1952) and Chase Manhattan Plaza (1961). Before the current age of the super skyscraper, SOM designed what was for almost thirty years the world's tallest building, Chicago's Sears Tower (1973), as well as the city's John Hancock Center (1970). With an essay by the American critic Nicholas Adams that contextualizes the importance of SOM's contribution to the globalization of architecture - and its participation in less emphatically vertical structures, such as the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo (1962) and the l Hajj Terminal at King Abdul Aziz International Airport in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (1981) - this title provides the first-ever independently authored overview on a firm that continues to make headlines to this day.

Art Spaces Architecture & Design
A surprising trend can be discerned in museum building since the end of the 1990s, one that still seems to be going strong today: an unprecedented number of grand-scale projects have been undertaken in recent years, ont only by private sponsors, but in many cases made possible instead by public funding. This book not only shows new museums , galleries and exhibition venues for the fine arts, but also features unusual buildings housing special collections, as well as museums exhibting material from other fields of knowledge. One central focus of contemporary architecture can be traced particulary well in the examples illustrated in the book: new surfaces that enable the creation of new forms. Astoundingly, parallel to this development another architectural approach which can be already be called classical is also experiencing a Renaissance - the clearly defined, austere cube cloaked in a free-floating glass shell. No less than three buildings depicted here demonstrate the immense variety that is possible within these rigid parameters. The works shown here are no more than five years old and show, what a broad bandwidth can be discerned within a moment's snapshot. There are visionaries like Asymptote and masters such as Günter Behnisch and Tadao Ando, whose buildings span an arc from classical modernism to the architecture of today.

Dream Apartments
Restrictions on urban space have obliged people to opt for dimensions that are more limited than those of a traditional house if they are to continue enjoying the advantages of living in a city center. The term "apartment", however, need not be synonymous with lack of comfort or unattractiveness - in fact, the aim of this book is precisely to demonstrate that the most functional small home can also be a magnificent example of innovative and evocative architecture. Dream Aportments is aimed at readers who resist the idea of homogenization sometimes associated with an urban apartment. No elaborate exterior structure can distract the critical eye from the work undertaken in thes interiors: the designer, like us, starts from the same point - an empty space - and, through the skilful and ingenious use of construction skills, this can result in apartments as exclusive and inspirational as the ones presented in this book.
