Ando - Complete Works 1975-Today


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 Shanghai Poly Theater and the Clark Center at the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Each project is profiled through photographs and architectural drawings to explore Ando's unprecedented use of concrete, wood, water, light, space, and natural forms. Based on the massive XXL monograph, this edition brings the architect's definitive career overview to an accessible format.

Hluboké město


Hluboké město Pavel Kalina Vyjde03.07.2019 „Přestože se v této knize mluví převážně o tom, jak města vypadala v minulosti,“ píše autor v úvodu, „skutečná otázka, kterou si klade, zní, jak město bude vypadat v nadcházejícím tisíciletí.“ Kniha se zabývá nepřeberným znakovým bohatstvím měst, vytvářejícím stabilní rámec životů jejich obyvtel. „Hluboké město“, které svou sémantickou hloubku často čerpá z imaginárních vztahů k antickému Římu, umožňuje maximum komunikace i sociálních interakcí. Evropská historická města k tomuto typu měst vesměs patří, ale vlivem sílícího turistického průmyslu a developerských projektů se jejich „hloubka“ vytrácí a těmto městům hrozí komunikační a sociální „plochost“. Kromě kapitol věnovaných Římu, Benátkám, Berlínu, Istanbulu, New Yorku, Praze a dalším městům kniha přináší i zhodnocení několika klíčových stavebních typů – nákupních center, stadionů, muzeí, knihoven a kostelů – a to právě z hlediska jejich schopnosti vytvářet, či naopak potlačovat historickou paměť. Jak autor naznačuje, základem cesty k městu budoucnosti by mělo být neustálé a nesmírně složité vyvažování relativní chaotičnosti vznikání a vývoje měst na jedné straně a cílevědomé a pro města životně nutné integrace všech těchto procesů na straně druhé.

The Theatre of Work


The modern workplace has evolved from a dehumanized cubicle landscape to space designed for intelligent human life. While utility and amenity are vastly improved, wh at advances have been made in building truly creative communities that spark creativity, knowledge sharing and collaboration? Is the 21st century office performing at peak? Clive Wilkinson - The Theatre of Work proposes an intensified relationship between office users and the space they occupy. The new workspace should amplify and celebrate the activity of work and of human community, and in the process, becoming vital and compelling Theatre. In defining this new landscape, the author examines global devel opments in workplace thinking, historical antecedents, the performance touch-points for the new office, and proposes seven humanistic principles that will inform a holistic design process that can bring this concept of Theatre to fruition. Each of these principles is demonstrated through case studies of the work of his renowned design studio, Clive Wilkinson Architects (CWA), with rich iconography, diagrammatic strategy and contextual ingenuity. The outcome of this process, with its multiple performative la yers, effectively promotes elevating a corporate brief of basic needs and goals to a profoundly human-centred presentation of `work as theatre' .

Budúcnosť ľudovej architektúry Slovenska


Kniha - Budúcnosť ľudovej architektúry Slovenska voľne nadväzuje na knihu Ľudová architektúra Slovenska 1-2.

Knižka obsahuje okrem architektonických návrhov, tvorených na základe objednávok a komunikácie so zákazníkom, aj náčrt stavebnej histórie súvisiacej s domami ľudovej architektúry (vývoj domu so sochou, vývoj domu Detvy...).

Oldřich Liska - Architekt východočeské moderny


Významný, avšak doposud opomíjený urbanista, výtvarný návrhář a architekt východočeské moderny Oldřich Liska (1881–1959) působil v letech 1908–1947 ve čtyřech královéhradeckých projekčních kancelářích. Během své činnosti byl autorem největšího počtu architektonických realizací v Hradci Králové v rámci meziválečného období. V tomto městě se také stal spoluautorem několika urbanizačních studií, které pak rozvíjel i v dalších obcích regionu (např. Pardubice, Třebechovice pod Orebem, Polička, Jaroměř, Kostelec nad Orlicí, Náchod). Hlavní těžiště Liskovy činnosti ve dvacátých letech spočívalo v realizaci bloků nouzových obytných domů. Mezi další důležité aspekty architektovy tvorby patří inovační návrhy škol tzv. halové dispozice na východočeském venkově; nepřehlédnutelná je projektantova schopnost dobře se přizpůsobit nejnovějším architektonickým módním trendům.
