Slavné vily Prahy 10
Slavné vily Prahy Prahy 10 navazují na identicky pojaté publikace o výjimečných rodinných domech a vilách s příběhem o nich, jejich stavebnících a tvůrcích. Kniha představuje padesát medailonů známých i neznámých staveb realizovaných od konce 19. století až do současnosti.
Vinohradské, vršovické, strašnické, michelské a záběhlické rodinné domy a vily dokumentované bohatým obrazovým materiálem, hlavně pak dobovými plány, jsou zasazeno do mnohem širších, nežli jen místních souvislostí. Díky nim se z průvodních kapitol dozvíme, jak se třeba stavělo za socialismu, jak nové materiály ovlivnily estetiku funkcionalistismu a že jeden budoucí spolupracovník slavného amerického architekta Franka L. Wrighta chtěl strašnickou kolonii rodinných domků stavět z prefabrikátů jeřáby už v roce 1919.

Humanise
Our world is losing its humanity.
Too many developers care more about their shareholders than society. Too many politicians care more about power than the people who vote for them. And too many cities feel soulless and depressing, with buildings designed for business, not for us.
So where do we find hope?
Thomas Heatherwick has an alternative. By changing the world around us, we can improve our health, restore our happiness, and save our planet. The time has come to put human emotion back at the heart of the design process. Drawing on thirty years of making bold, beautiful buildings, neuroscience and cognitive psychology, Heatherwick brings together vivid stories and hundreds of beautiful images into a visual masterpiece. Humanise will inspire us to do nothing less than remake our world.

A Way of Life: Notes on Ballenberg
A multiauthored portrait of the Swiss open-air museum documenting centuries of historic homes and the enchanting details of vernacular architecture
Founded in 1978, Ballenberg is a legendary Swiss open-air architectural museum that gathers more than 100 residential and agricultural buildings from the 14th to the 19th centuries, from almost all of the cantons of Switzerland, which have been transported to the museum from their original sites. Together these buildings show how architecture, furnishings and tools expressed the needs of everyday life in their design and execution. Traditional handicrafts such as basket-weaving, forging, braiding, spinning, weaving and carving are also kept alive in Ballenberg's on-site workshops.
Edited by Rolf Fehlbaum, entrepreneur and long-time driving force behind Vitra, this beautiful publication is an invitation to discover and explore the world of things with fresh eyes. A Way of Life compiles photographs, observations and discoveries made at Ballenberg by the acclaimed designers Jasper Morrison and David Saik and the architect Tsuyoshi Tane, who all share a fascination with the simple, the practical and the functionally beautiful. In concise, elegant writing, Morrison, Saik and Tane comment on the design ingenuities in various features of the buildings. The book’s superb photography celebrates the traces of wear and tear on door handles, benches, columns, brick tile floors and other architectural details that testify to a bygone ethos of enduring utility and economic common sense. A Way of Life serves as an encouragement to designers and consumers alike to resist trends and fads, and to critically evaluate the objects of everyday use in terms of utility and aesthetics.

The Japanese House Since 1945
The Japanese House Since 1945Unparalleled in their conceptual purity, many Japanese houses have become icons at home as well as abroad. Presented with clear prose and accompanied by photographs and drawings, the book features ninety-seven houses, divided among nine chapters and organized by decade. In addition to acquainting the reader with individual homes, the book illuminates the social, technological, geographic, and historical factors behind these epoch-making houses.
Developments over the period are underscored by the visual presentation, as it evolves from monochrome to color and from hand-drawn to digital. Decade lead-ins set the historical context for each chapter, while “Spotlight” segments draw attention to the separate components of the Japanese house. “At Home” sections, most authored by architects and their family members, bring to life the experience of living in these unique houses.
London Living
London Living presents a unique look into the homes of London-based interior designers, antique dealers, musicians, and influencers, revealed by leading interior design photographer Simon Upton.
Following the success of his first book, New York Interiors, Simon Upton turns to London—a city in which he has been based for most of his working life. Exploring an incredible range of homes in this vibrant city, Upton looks behind the scenes into the private spaces of creatives and influencers.
Presented in two parts, the book begins with “Town,” which is devoted to the homes of those who live solely in London, such as grandee of interior design John Stefanidis; House & Garden’s Interior Designer of the Year 2019, Maria Speake; industrial designer and architect Tom Bartlett; fashion designer Bella Freud; model Poppy Delevingne; and antiques dealer and interior designer Adam Bray. Then, “Country” showcases those who divide their time between London and a retreat in the British countryside, which includes names such as antiques dealers Jorge Perez-Martin and David Gibson, known together as Brownrigg; film director Gaby Dellal; and designer Jasper Conran.
Edited by interior design writer Karen Howes and featuring a foreword by iconic decorator and Upton’s friend Nicky Haslam, London Living reveals a series of unique locations, each illuminated by an interview in which the owner defines their true meaning of “home.”

This unique visual collection celebrates the very best contemporary Maximalist interior design as well as making the connection to a much longer historical tradition of excess.

Teorém kamenné zahrady
Kniha Teorém kamenné zahrady unikátním způsobem mapuje prostředí střešovického ateliéru Bohumila Kafky s přilehlou zahradou, přičemž hranice mezi oběma prostory je nejasná a propustná. Kniha znejišťuje jak utilitární vnímání místa, tak jeho jasně konturovanou interpretaci. Místo toho nabízí reflexivní, tázající se přístup, odkazující ke konceptům jako je poetika prostoru, kulturní paměť nebo genius loci. „Ateliér“ a „zahrada“ se stávají nejednoznačnými, živoucími pojmy, které kniha ohledává v několika vrstvách tak, že vytvářejí vlastní polyfonní dialog. Časosběrná fotografická dokumentace Slávky Hajdeckerové, vznikající na Kafkárně v průběhu tří let, je doplněná imaginativními básnickými texty Kláry Krásenské, které reagují na zdejší konkrétní prostory. Knihu ohraničují esejistické texty Davida Bláhy a Matouše Lipuse, nabízející další možná čtení místa. Teorém kamenné zahrady se coby publikace sama blíží organickému, ale různorodému celku a z prostoru, který reflektuje, přejímá výzvu k vnímavému a otevřenému čtení. Grafika Klára Kvízová.
Soft City (Pří)jemné město
PŘEDSTAVTE SI MĚSTO, kde můžete spát při otevřeném okně a kde pochůznost, tedy možnost pěšího pohybu a pěší dostupnost, začíná přímo u dveří vašeho bytu. (Pří)jemné město znamená lehkost a pohodlí, hustota v něm má lidské rozměry, přizpůsobuje se našim neustále se měnícím potřebám, podporuje rozvoj našich vztahů a přizpůsobuje se radostem našeho každodenního života. Jak ale proměníme současnou realitu většiny našich měst – s oddělenými účely využití a dlouhým dojížděním ve vozech obsazených jen jednou osobou, které drancují lidské, environmentální i komunitní zdroje – a zavedeme v nich principy příjemného města?
V knize Soft City – (Pří)jemné město David Sim ukazuje, že to je možné, když budeme hustě zastavěné prostředí navrhovat v lidském měřítku. Příjemné město ale musí nabízet víc, než jen zvyšovat hustotu. Uspořádání a rozvržení zastavěného prostředí je nutné volit s ohledem na plynulejší pohyb a komfort, na různorodost typů budov a na promyšlený design, který zabezpečí udržitelné městské prostředí i společnost. Kniha Soft City – (Pří)jemné město přináší nápady, návody a inspiraci pro každého, kdo se zajímá o výstavbu měst. Sim ukazuje, jak může být jakékoliv město efektivnější, příjemnější pro život a lépe propojené se životním prostředím.

Urbanistický Atlas Bratislava 2022
Publikácia sa venuje prezentácii Urbanistickej štruktúry a členenia mesta, katastra Bratislavy. Tieto témy súvisia s návrhom nového územného plánu, ktorý by mal obsahovať hranice zastavaného a zastaviteľného územia mesta. Kataster Bratislavy má dnes zhruba tretinu zastavaného územia, tretinu tvoria zeleň, lesy a tretina plochy je nezastavaná. Jednotlivé mestské časti, aj menšie časti mesta majú rôznu štruktúru zástavby. Prvým krokom pri návrhu celku by mohlo byť definovanie Urbanistických lokalít, ktoré sú základnou zložkou urbanistického členenia mesta. Dnešné členenie na ZSJ- základné sídelné jednotky je zastaralé a neobsahuje novú zástavbu po roku 1990. Publikácia obsahuje popri analýze štruktúry zástavby aj alternatívu nového členenia Bratislavy.
Publikácia obsahuje do 80 schém mesta aj jednotlivých častí mesta, 12 fotozáberov z dronu, časť textu je v anglickom jazyku. Zobrazený je aj vznik nového obrazu mesta- aglomerácie a možný rozvoj štruktúry severozápadnej a severovýchodnej časti mesta Bratislava.
The Iconic British House
A comprehensive survey of fifty of Britain’s most architecturally significant houses from 1900 to the present, featuring established names alongside the work of fresh emerging talents in the twenty-first century. Covering the major design movements of the past 120 years, including art deco, modernism, and postmodernism, this book also offers a unique insight into changing tastes and attitudes about the home in Britain.In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in the architectural history and heritage of Britain.
This has been driven by many important political, cultural, and social factors, from Brexit to the rise of the staycation, as well as a powerful and renewed interest in the design of house and home.The featured houses include examples designed by architects Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Edwin Lutyens, Berthold Lubetkin, Serge Chermayeff, Richard Rogers, and many others.
Twenty-first-century innovation and imagination are evidenced in homes by established and emerging talents, such as Seth Stein, Nick Eldridge, Robin Partington, and Ken Shuttleworth.Much more than a celebration of influential houses, this richly illustrated overview is a comprehensive guide to shifting architectural movements and ideas, a survey of great architects with international relevance, and a journey through changing tastes, styles, aesthetics, and patterns of living.
The Meaningful Modern Home

In her first monograph, Chicago-based architect Celeste Robbins of Robbins Architecture proves that contemporary design can be inviting, comfortable, and graciously responsive to how we live. Illustrating Robbins’s holistic vision, which integrates architecture, interior design, and landscape, The Meaningful Modern Home features nine significant projects across the United States realized in different styles and natural materials. All offer living proof of how modernism can be warm and rooted in a vivid sense of place.
all about CHALETS
Exclusive living retreats set against the backdrop of majestic peaks, steep slopes and picturesque valleys
The chalet is a building style that enjoys lasting popularity all over the world. Dating back to the herdsman’s hut in the Alpine region, it became a longed-for destination and the most preferred holiday domicile in the 19th century with the emerging fascination with the Alps. Today, architects and designers are primarily inspired by the constantly redefined interplay of sublime nature, traditional architecture, regional building typologies, individual design, and modern formal language that pushes them to reach magnificent creative peaks.
The projects selected for this volume are diverse and remarkably multifaceted: From a traditional construction with a flat gable roof, wide roof overhang, and robust timber façade, to contemporary, thoroughly idiosyncratic interpretations with clear lines, creative choice of materials, and fine details. However, the artful staging of the imposing mountain world in the interior design plays a decisive role among all presented chalets.
