Maximalism
A decadent and extravagant celebration of interior style, featuring more than 220 maximalist residential interiors, from the 1600s to the present day.
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. Maximalism is a style that has been with us, in one guise or another – for example in the castles, palazzi, chateaux, and historic homes of bygone ages – for more than 400 years. This richly illustrated volume, with metallic gold ink used throughout, features the most extraordinary Maximalist interiors from all over the globe, from centuries past and present, transcending both time and geography. An intense and thrilling journey through the magic and mayhem that is Maximalism – a book that is as much an experience as it is a book – its luxurious pages are layered, loud, and louche, chaotic, colorful, and controversial, but also romantic, joyous, and imbued with personality, history, and story telling
Featured designers include: Jonathan Adler, Alidad, Sig Bergamin, Thomas Britt, Denning and Fourcade, Dorothy Draper, Tony Duquette, Ann Getty, Jacques Grange, India Mahdavi, Peter Marino, Juan Pablo Molyneux, Renzo Mongiardino, Alberto Pinto, Redd Kaihoi, and Elsie de Wolfe
Historic interiors featured include: castles, country estates, and palaces in Austria, France, Germany, India, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, the UK, and the USA
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
A collection of nine contemporary homes by architect Celeste Robbins, who imbues her modern designs with warmth and emotion
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.

Aino + Alvar Aalto
A visual biography of Aino and Alvar Aalto, who designed some of the most iconic objects of the twentieth century
Aino and Alvar Aalto together founded Artek and created some of the most celebrated objects and buildings of the twentieth century. Through letters, documents, drawings, and family photographs, Alvar and Aino’s grandson tells the stories of their life together, in Finland and abroad, drawing on many of the never-before-published letters they sent to each other and to family, friends, and colleagues, until Aino’s death in 1949. The first monograph to specifically examine and celebrate the life and work of Aino and Alvar as a shared endeavour, this personal and intimate look at the unconventional lives of one of the most influential design couples of the twentieth century has been warmly and accessibly written by Aino and Alvar’s grandson, who has drawn on the family’s largely unpublished archive, including personal letters, snapshots, and sketches.
Contemporary Japanese Architecture. 40th Ed.
Modern by Tradition
A survey of Japan’s contemporary architecture scene
Japan's contemporary architecture has long been among the most inventive in the world, recognized for sustainability and infinite creativity. No fewer than eight Japanese architects have won the Pritzker Prize.
Since Osaka World Expo ’70 highlighted contemporary forms, Japan has been a key player in global architecture. Tadao Ando's geometry put Japanese building on the map, bridging East and West. After his concrete buildings, figures like Kengo Kuma, Shigeru Ban, and Kazuyo Sejima pioneered a more sustainable approach. Younger generations have taken new directions, in harmony with nature, traditional building, and an endless search for forms.
Presenting the latest in Japanese building, this book links this unique creativity to Japan's high population density, modern economy, long history, and continual disasters in the form of earthquakes. Accepting ambiguity, constant change, and catastrophe is a key to understanding how Japanese architecture differs from that of Europe or America.
Derived from the XL-sized book, this affordable edition highlights 37 architects and 53 exceptional projects by Japanese masters—from Tadao Ando’s Shanghai Poly Theater, Shigeru Ban’s concert hall La Seine Musical, SANAA’s Grace Farms, Fumihiko Maki’s 4 World Trade Center to Takashi Suo’s much smaller sustainable dental clinic. An elaborate essay traces the building scene from the Metabolists to today, showing how the interaction of past, present, and future has earned contemporary Japanese architecture worldwide recognition.
A rejtelmes Népszínház utca - és egykori lakói
A budapesti VIII. kerület egy-egy utcaképe talán nem tartozik a bédekkerek kedvenc hangulati fotói közé, a Sétakönyvek sorozatunk legújabb részéből azonban kiderül: a helyiek által sokszor csak Népszinyónak becézett utca meglepő építészeti és történelmi értékekkel bír, amelyekre Maczó Balázs várostörténész hívja fel a figyelmet. A sorozat újlipótvárosi, terézvárosi, városligeti, Margit-szigeti sétái után újra különleges városnézésre invitáljuk az olvasót-nézőt. Nézze, figyelje a homlokzatokat, a díszítéseket, az egykor előkelőnek és modernnek számító Népszínház utca sarokházait, s merengjen el Budapest e városrészének egykori és mai csodáin. Mert ahogy a szerző is írja: "az 1910-es évek Budapestjének legmodernebb utcájában vagyunk, ahol nemcsak lakni volt sikk, de idejárni vásárolni vagy igénybe venni valamilyen szolgáltatást is. A házak homlokzatai szinte vetekednek egymással: melyik a legbátrabb, legnagyobb, legkreatívabb, egyszóval: melyik a legmodernebb. Az itteni bérháztulajdonosok városszerte azzal reprezentáltak, hogy ki tudja megfizetni a legnevesebb tervezőt, akitől rendre ötletes, újszerű építészeti megoldásokat vártak el." Sétára fel!
Volmanova vila
Volmanova vila je fenomenálním příkladem české meziválečné architektury i dokladem společenské ambice první československé republiky podepřené její ekonomickou silou. Kniha „Volmanova vila – klenot české meziválečné architektury“ je stejně tak výpravnou monografií představující její architekturu, jako sondou do české moderní historie. Svědectvím o proměnách naší společnosti po roce 1948 i dokladem více jak patnáctiletého úsilí spojeného s obnovou a rekonstrukcí vily.
Kromě podrobného popisu stavby jsou zde představeny dodnes neuveřejněné dobové plány a fotografie doprovázené mnohovrstevnatými historickými komentáři a vysvětlením technik použitých při rekonstrukci objektu. Část textů je věnována autorům vily, době jejího vzniku i dílu významného českého podnikatele Josefa Volmana, zakladatele závodu, který dal vzniknout legendární české značce obráběcích strojů i současné tváři města Čelákovice, a také osudům jeho rodiny, které byly stejně pohnuté jako osud samotného domu. To vše se prolíná s úvahami historiků a architektů o kompozici domu, jeho estetice, atmosféře, expresi i řádu, které jsou poselstvím pro současnou dobu. .

Zaha Hadid. Complete Works 1979-Today. 40th Ed.
Zaha Hadid was a revolutionary architect. For years, she was widely acclaimed and won numerous prizes despite building practically nothing. Some even said her work was simply impossible to build. Yet, during the latter years of her life, Hadid’s daring visions became a reality, bringing a new and unique architectural language to cities and structures such as the Port House in Antwerp, the Al Janoub Stadium near Doha, Qatar, and the spectacular new airport terminal in Beijing.
By her untimely death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among architecture’s finest elite, working on projects in Europe, China, the Middle East, and the United States. She was the first female architect to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the prestigious RIBA Royal Gold Medal, with her long-time Partner Patrik Schumacher now the leader of Zaha Hadid Architects and in charge of many new projects.
Based on the massive TASCHEN monograph, this book is now available in a compact edition covering Hadid’s complete works, including ongoing projects. With abundant photographs, in-depth sketches, and Hadid’s own drawings, the volume traces the evolution of her career, spanning not only her most pioneering buildings but also the furniture and interior designs that were integrated into her unique, and distinctly 21st-century, universe.

Hermann Czech
Hermann Czech is one of Austria’s most eminent and influential contemporary architects
This is the definitive monograph on Hermann Czech
Traces Czech’s career, explores his links to Viennese modernism, and analyses contemporary influences that shape his thinking and designs
Offers a complete index of Czech’s buildings, projects, and writings to date
Hermann Czech, born in 1936, is one of Austria’s most eminent and influential architects and theorists. This influence is based not only on his work as a designing architect, which extends to furniture, interiors, and exhibitions. Czech is also widely admired just as much for his writings on architectural theory and as the editor and translator of classics of architectural history, including texts by Otto Wagner, Adolf Loos, Josef Frank, and Christopher Alexander, among others.
This book is the long-awaited updated and expanded English edition of the only full monograph on Hermann Czech to date. First published in German in 2018, it goes far beyond a mere presentation of an architecture practice’s buildings and projects. The first part traces what links Czech’s work to the approaches of Viennese modernism. The second part explores Czech’s biography and the trajectory of his career, analysing as well the contemporary influences that shape his thinking and designs. The third part features selected buildings and unrealised projects, setting forth also Czech’s numerous references and underlying reflections. A complete index of his buildings, projects, and writings, an essay by Vienna-based philosopher Elisabeth Nemeth on the relationship between architecture and philosophy in Czech’s work, and an introduction by architectural historian Liane Lefaivre round off this volume.
Waste and the City
In an age of pandemics the relationship between the health of the city and good sanitation has never been more important. Waste and the City is a call to action on one of modern urban life's most neglected issues: sanitation infrastructure. The Covid-19 pandemic has laid bare the devastating consequences of unequal access to sanitation in cities across the globe. At this critical moment in global public health, Colin McFarlane makes the urgent case for Sanitation for All.
The book outlines the worldwide sanitation crisis and offers a vision for a renewed, equitable investment in sanitation that democratises and socialises the modern city. Adopting Henri Lefebvre's concept of 'the right to the city', it uses the notion of 'citylife' to reframe the discourse on sanitation from a narrowly-defined policy discussion to a question of democratic right to public life and health. In doing so, the book shows that sanitation is an urbanizing force whose importance extends beyond hygiene to the very foundation of urban social life.
Interiors
The ultimate global celebration of residential design and decorating
With 400 rooms organized by designer from A-Z, this much-lauded book goes beyond decorators, designers, and architects to highlight exquisite interiors designed by fashion designers, artists, style icons, and film stars, each of whom has made a unique contribution to the world of interior design. Ranging from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day, the book features everything from chateaux, town houses, and penthouses to desert ranches, beach houses, and tiny apartments in more than 25 countries. Featuring the ‘greats’ of interior design, such as Elsie de Wolfe, Billy Baldwin, and Colefax & Fowler, alongside contemporary stars such as Anouska Hempel, Kelly Hoppen, and Karim Rashid, Interiors is an elegant and beautiful object in its own right, now available with an exquisite and eye-popping pink velvet cover. This is the essential inspirational source book for design aficionados, anyone who is interested in beautiful rooms, and for everyone who cares about the spaces in which they live.

Down the Earth
Rammed earth is a wall building technique that uses earth, chalk, lime and gravel as raw materials. It is an ancient building method that has experienced a renaissance in recent years as people seek greener and more sustainable building materials and naturalconstruction methods. Rammed earth walls are simple to construct, non-combustible, thermally massive, strong and durable.
However, they can be labour-intensive to construct without machinery and are susceptible to water damage if not properly protected or maintained. Rammed earth buildings are found on almost every continent, in a range of environments including the temperate and humid regions of northern Europe, semi-arid deserts, mountain and country areas and the tropics. The availability of usable soil and a building design suited to local climatic conditions are factors favouring their use.
This book is a compilation of the most relevant international examples of this interesting building technique.
Ando. Complete Works 1975-Today. 2023 Edition
Discover the completely unique aesthetic of Tadao Ando, the only architect ever to have won the discipline’s four most prestigious prizes: the Pritzker, Carlsberg, Praemium Imperiale, and Kyoto Prize.
Philippe Starck defines him as a “mystic in a country which is no longer mystic.” Philip Drew calls his buildings “land art” as they “struggle to emerge from the earth.” His designs have been described as haiku crafted from concrete, water, light, and space. But to Ando, true architecture is not expressed in metaphysics or beauty, but rather through space that embodies physical wisdom.
This thoroughly updated edition spans the breadth of his entire career, including such stunning new projects as the Bourse de Commerce in Paris and the Nakanoshima Children’s Book Forest in Osaka. Each project is profiled through photographs and architectural drawings to explore Ando’s unprecedented use of concrete, wood, water, light, space, and natural forms.
Featuring designs from award-winning private homes, churches, museums, and apartment complexes to cultural spaces throughout Japan, South Korea, France, Italy, Germany, Mexico, and the USA, this XXL-edition brings you up close and personal with a Modernist master.
Also available in an Art Edition limited to 100 copies, with an original sketch signed by Tadao Ando and a Natural Oak box designed by Ando.
