Bauhaus - Updated Edition
In a fleeting 14-year period between two world wars, Germany's Bauhaus School of Art and Design changed the face of modernity. With utopian ideas for the future, the school developed a pioneering fusion of fine art, craftsmanship, and technology, which they applied across media and practices from film to theater, sculpture to ceramics.
This book is made in collaboration with the Bauhaus-Archiv/Museum fur Gestaltung in Berlin, the world's largest collection on the history of the Bauhaus. Some 550 illustrations including architectural plans, studies, photographs, sketches, and models record not only the realized works but also the leading principles and personalities of this idealistic creative community through its three successive locations in Weimar, Dessau, and Berlin. From informal shots of group gymnastics to drawings guided by Paul Klee, from extensive architectural plans to an infinitely sleek ashtray by Marianne Brandt, the collection brims with the colors, materials, and geometries that made up the Bauhaus vision of a "total" work of art.
As we approach the Bauhaus centennial, this is a defining account of its energy and rigor, not only as a trailblazing movement in modernism but also as a paradigm of art education, where creative expression and cutting-edge ideas led to simultaneously functional and beautiful creations. Featured artists include Josef Albers, Marianne Brandt, Walter Gropius, Gertrud Grunow, Paul Klee, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Lilly Reich.
Asszony és háza - Avagy az én Toszkánám
Egy házépítés története, ahogyan én láttam. Az építész asszony, ahogyan a gyermekeim apja menet közben titulált. Én, mindennek az oka és okozója. Aki ezt az egészet kavarta. Azt, hogy odahagyjuk viszonylag jól bejáratott városi társasházi életünket, és falura költözzünk, házat építsünk. A könyv főszereplője a ház maga, ahogyan kitalálódik, felépítődik, belakjuk, ellepjük. Ahogyan zajlunk benne, kutyák, macskák, gyerekek, barátok, tüzek, vizek, mesék, képek. És énekeljük közben a Mary Poppins kéményseprőjével: "I do what I like, and I like what I do" (Azt csinálom, amit szeretek, és azt szeretem, amit csinálok.) (Petrik Adrien)
Drawing for Landscape Architecture
This essential publication reintroduces the importance of learning to `see by hand', to visualize large-scale design schemes and explain them through drawing, before using the digital tools that are so crucial to efficient and cost-effective building solutions. Combining traditional drawing techniques with those from CAD rendering, Drawing for Landscape Architecture guides practitioners from their very first impression of a site, through concept and schematic design and client presentation to construction and site drawings, concluding with two case studies that show the final result. Just as hand-drawing returns to design courses around the world, this welcome publication celebrates the best aspects of traditional techniques while incorporating them into today's digital design methods.

BAWA Starcases
Aimed at architecture students and professionals Bawa Staircases offers the reader a primer of how staircases are often the most dynamic and theatrical spatial elements of a building or landscape. It is a compelling addition to the literature on Sri Lanka's preeminent architect, Geoffrey Bawa and showcases his numerous and varied architectural and landscape designs for residential, public works, gardens and hotel architecture, with particular reference to the staircases he created. Throughout, lush photography by Sebastian Posingis and insightful texts by David Robson are accompanied by contextual shots, plans and illustrations, all illustrating this absorbing island and the work of an architectural master.
Off the Grid - Houses for Escape
Recent advances in technologies and home-generated renewable energy have made building away from urban and rural infrastructures more practical and affordable than ever. This survey of the world's most innovative off-grid homes reveals the cuttingedge architecture and technology that is enabling us to escape to some of the most extraordinary natural environments on the planet.
All of the houses featured in this book are fully, or almost fully, self-sufficient in terms of energy, water and, in some cases, food. Architecture and interior design expert Dominic Bradbury reveals how each architect has made everyday living in these wild and natural settings a rewarding and tempting reality. From snowbound cabins in the far Northern Hemisphere to coastal retreats that can only be accessed by boat, the diverse projects collected here show the innovative ways in which architects and their clients are tackling extreme climates, remoteness and construction challenges to enable a new way of life that is both liberating and sustainable.
The imperative to reduce our carbon footprints and refocus on renewable sources of energy is having a profound impact on our domestic lives. This fascinating survey demonstrates that creative architecture, design and technology are redefining the possibilities for leading a truly rewarding and responsible lifestyle.
Making Marks
Making Marks follows up the highly successful Architects' Sketchbooks, which presented, for the first time, the rich breadth of sketches being created by contemporary architects following the digital revolution. Taking a post-digital perspective, the sixty renowned architects whose work is collected here show how drawing and new forms of manual presentation have been refined since the reawakening of this basic technique. Notepads, stacks of paper, pencils and fine-point pens are as present in the architect's studio as phalanxes of screens. Revealing why and how hand-drawing still matters, this global survey presents the freehand drawings, vibrant watercolours and abstract impressions of rising talents and well-known names, including Jun Igarashi and Brian MacKay-Lyons. Will Jones's introduction reviews the importance of the physical sketch and its vital part in the architect's creative process.
Spanning diverse approaches, styles and physical forms, ,i>Making Marks is not merely a compendium of the preoccupations and stylistics of current practice, but a rich and varied insight into architectural creativity.
Future Cities: Architecture and the Imagination
Though reaching ever further toward the skies, today's cities are overshadowed by multiple threats: climate change, overpopulation, social division, and urban warfare all endanger our metropolitan way of life. The fundamental tool we use to make sense of these uncertain city futures is the imagination. Architects, artists, filmmakers, and fiction writers have long been inspired to imagine cities of the future, but their speculative visions tend to be seen very differently from scientific predictions: flights of fancy on the one hand versus practical reasoning on the other.
In a digital age when the real and the fantastic coexist as near equals, it is especially important to know how these two forces are entangled, and how together they may help us best conceive of cities yet to come. Exploring a breathtaking range of imagined cities--submerged, floating, flying, vertical, underground, ruined, and salvaged--Future Cities teases out the links between speculation and reality, arguing that there is no clear separation between the two. In the Netherlands, prototype floating cities are already being built; Dubai's recent skyscrapers resemble those of science-fiction cities of the past; while makeshift settlements built by the urban poor in the developing world are already like the dystopian cities of cyberpunk.
Bringing together architecture, fiction, film, and visual art, Paul Dobraszczyk reconnects the imaginary city with the real, proposing a future for humanity that is firmly grounded in the present and in the diverse creative practices already at our fingertips.
Walter Gropius - Visionary Founder of the Bauhaus
*BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK *
*Illustrated with over 130 colour photographs and drawings*
In her majestic biography of Walter Gropius, charismatic founder of the Bauhaus, Fiona MacCarthy argues that his visionary ideas still influence the way we live, work, and think today.
'An absolute triumph.' Edmund de Waal, bestselling author of The Hare with Amber Eyes
'Moving and vivid ... Hard to beat.' Rowan Moore, Observer
'Commanding, intelligent, gripping.' Laura Freeman, Times
Mention the Bauhaus and iconic objects such as a Marianne Brandt teapot, an Anni Albers weaving or a Marcel Breuer chair leap to mind. But the Bauhaus was more than an art school - it was the birth of a radical new philosophy of design: a constellation of talents including Kandinsky, Klee and Moholy-Nagy, at the heart of which was Walter Gropius.
Celebrated biographer Fiona MacCarthy grippingly narrates the story of the ground-breaking architect's life beginning with his shattering experiences in World War One before his turbulent marriage to the notorious Alma Mahler and the tragic death of their daughter. After Gropius' agonized decision to leave Nazi Germany in 1933, she explores his life in exile by tracing how a disorientating period in London evolved into a peaceful marriage with Ise Gropius, and his late starring role in twentieth-century architecture in America.
Challenging views of Gropius as a doctrinaire modernist, MacCarthy's modern reassessment of Gropius' interior life is biography at its finest: insightful, witty, and gloriously three-dimensional.

Dílo Jana Koblasy v kostele Sv. Petra a Pavla v Jedovnicích
Kniha se věnuje přestavbě interiéru kostela sv. Petra a Pavla v Jedovnicích u Brna. Zabývá se zejména účastí Jana Koblasy na modernizaci presbytáře (oltářního prostoru) kostela. Hlavní část úpravy tamního oltářního prostoru probíhala v první polovině šedesátých let dvacátého století a spolu s Koblasou se na ní podíleli také další umělci, jež dnes řadíme mezi přední výtvarníky své doby: Mikuláš Medek, Karel Nepraš a Josef Istler. Koblasův podíl je však zdaleka nejrozsáhlejší. Navzdory tomu, že v dnešní době již výraznou měrou přibylo moderního projevu v sakrálním prostoru, patří jedovnická úprava presbytáře mezi ty nejhodnotnější. Je výjimečná nejen svou povahou, ale také specifická dobou a místem svého vzniku. Vyniká jak v kontextu českého a evropského umění, tak v kontextu Koblasovy tvorby.
Svým obsahem i použitými formálními prvky patří jedovnický presbytář k nejpozoruhodnějším ukázkám ars sacra v Evropě. Knihu doprovází fotografie.
Smrtí ke svobodě
Uplynulo sto let od konce 1. světové války a založení Československé republiky, jejíž existence trvala pouhých dvacet let. Ve městech a především po venkovské krajině východních Čech je na ni rozptýlena řada památek z oblasti hmotné kultury, které stojí za ochranu a péči, zachování do budoucích let a turistické objevování. Formou bedekru knížka přináší úvod do tematiky památníků a pomníků padlých vojáků z 1. světové války na území východních Čech. Představuje reprezentativní vzorek pomníků, které byly zpracovány s výraznější uměleckou invencí a snaží se nejen o výklad jejich ikonografie z hlediska národní a armádní symboliky, ale také upozorňuje na literární reflexi válečných střetů v deníkové, memoárové a krásné literatuře se zaměřením na tzv. legionářskou literaturu, vytvářenou veterány a dalšími přímými účastníky bojů, především z ruské válečné fronty. Vedle památníků představuje publikace také významné architektonické památky, vzniklé v regionu v období mezi oběma světovými válkami a prezentující vysokou úroveň stavební kultury veřejných staveb té doby. Vydejte se s námi na krátkou pouť východočeským regionem do časem velmi vzdáleného a přece stále aktuálního Československa.
Harminc
Michal Milan Harminc patrí popri D. Jurkovičovi a E. Bellušovi k najvýznamnejším slovenským architektom. Jeho život a výnimočné architektonické dielo mapuje vedecká monografia # Harminc autorov Jany Pohaničovej a Petra Vodrážku. Opiera sa o vedecké poznatky autorov, získané systematickou výskumnou prácou na grantových projektoch doma i v zahraničí.
Pútavý životný príbeh, charakteristika jednotlivých tvorivých etáp od historizmov, k moderne a funkcionalizmu spolu s reprezentatívnym typologickým výberom architetových stavieb - to všetko predstavené v roku 150. výročia narodenia a 55. výročia úmrtia nestora, vytvára predpoklad k obohateniu osobnostného spektra slovenskej historiografie architektúry o nové kontexty.
Impozantných takmer 300 realizovaných diel rôznych typologických druhov na území bývalého Rakúsko-Uhorska, neskôr Slovenska v rámci vtedajšieho Československa či na pôde nástupníckych štátov - v Maďarsku, v Srbsku, v Rumunsku, no i na Ukrajine ho v rokoch 1887 - 1951 zároveň právom zaradili k najproduktívnejším architektom nielen na Slovensku, ale aj v širšom európskom priestore.Autori v texte prinášajú rad nových poznatkov, ktoré prispievajú k identifikácii architektonických hodnôt Harmincovho diela, a tým aj k ochrane nášho i európskeho kultúrneho dedičstva.
Život a dielo tejto výnimočnej osobnosti v knihe ilustrujú vzácne archívne dokumenty (dosiaľ nepublikované), originálne plány, dobové fotografie i aktuálne fotografie, ktoré dotvárajú plastický obraz mohutného architektonického diela nestora.
Napriek nesporným vedeckým a odborným hodnotám je kniha nesmierne pútavá aj pre laického čitateľa.
Calatrava
Santiago Calatrava is a world-renowned architect, structural engineer, sculptor, and artist. From the Athens 2004 Olympic Sports Complex to the World Trade Center Transportation Hub in Manhattan, he exhibits a remarkable aesthetic and engineering prowess with a simultaneous sensitivity for both the appearance and the anatomy of a structure.With influences ranging from NASA space design to da Vinci's nature studies, Calatrava's creations are at once aerodynamic and organic in their associations. Natural forms and human movements inform a number of his projects, with a particular interest in the meeting point of equilibrium and dynamism.This updated monograph gathers detailed entries, photography, and the original watercolor sketches that set Calatrava aside as a unique creative master. It includes all of Calatrava's original collaborative input, as well as new projects including the Mediopadana Station in Reggio Emilia, Italy, the Museum of Tomorrow in Rio de Janeiro, and ongoing works like the UAE Pavilion at Expo 2020 in Dubai.
Piano
Renzo Piano rose to international prominence with his co-design of the Pompidou Center in Paris, described by The New York Times as a building that "turned the architecture world upside down." Since then, he has continued to craft such iconic cultural spaces as the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago and, most recently, the Whitney Museum of American Art, an asymmetric nine-story structure in Manhattan's Meatpacking District with both indoor and outdoor galleries. In London, the Piano touch has also transformed the skyline with the Shard, the tallest building in the European Union.
At the age of 80, the Italian maestro retains all of his enthusiasm and kindness-and his recent roster is more impressive than ever. As he confided to the author, "I think at a certain age, one can discover that there is what the French call the `fil rouge,' a kind of red thread that relates one building to another over time. In my case, I believe it is about lightness and the art of building." From freshly built museums in Athens and Santander; ongoing works in Los Angeles, Moscow, Beirut, and Istanbul; to such humanitarian projects as the Emergency Children's Surgery Center in Entebbe, Uganda, and the Children's Hospice in Bologna, Italy, Piano's career is a thrilling journey through the beauty and very essence of architecture.
This XXL-sized monograph, jam-packed with more than 200 new pages illustrated by photographs, sketches, and plans, spans Piano's entire career to date and the many existences of his singular aesthetic.Also available as an Art Edition accompanied by a print of a sketch by Renzo Piano, signed by the artist and limited to 200 copies.
Rodinné domy
Nechte se unést moderní architekturou v melancholické náladě české krajiny v knize Rodinné domy, která přináší výběr z desetileté tvorby studia Stempel & Tesař architekti.
Přední český fotograf Lukáš Jasanský zasadil stavby do vztahů s okolím, odhalil jejich unikátní architekturu, a to bez pozlátka slunných dnů a bohaté zeleně, v nepříznivém počasí, s patinou času. Publikací se zcela svébytnou atmosférou se vine nit komentářů od osobností z oboru architektura a její teorie, hodnotících rukopis autorů staveb i jednotlivého rodinného domu.
Adaptive Re-Use for Homes
Housing shortages and building dereliction are fundamental challenges, concerning also the current architectural landscape. That these problems can be overcome by addressing them together has been proven by the increasingly successful reactivation and conversion of existing real estate in both urban and rural contexts. Real-world examples show that these measures can also make sense economically and from an urban planning perspective. In this way, the most extraordinary living spaces are created from old silos or depreciated office buildings, vacant churches, former station buildings or obsolete infrastructure buildings with the creative appropriation of the existing substance. The careful and respectful handling of the building fabric is as important in this process as the creative extension of the existing structures. This volume shows the exciting variety of reuse possibilities and provides new insights into and perspectives on a highly topical subject.
