Entryways of Milan - Ingressi Di Milano
Bella Figura Milan's sumptuous modernist hallways First impressions count, especially in Milano. In this unprecedented photographic journey, editor Karl Kolbitz opens the door to 140 of the city's most sumptuous entrance halls, captivating in their diversity and splendor. These vibrant Milanese entryways, until now hidden away behind often restrained facades, are revealed as dazzling examples of Italian modernism, mediating public and private space with vivid configurations of color and form, from floors of juxtaposed stones to murals of minimalist geometry. The collection spans buildings from 1920 to 1970 and showcases the work of some of the city's most illustrious architects and designers, including, and Luigi Caccia Dominioni, as well as non-pedigreed architecture of equal impact and interest. The photographs for the publication were exclusively created by the Delfino Sisto Legnani, Paola Pansini and Matthew Billings, each evoking the entryways with individual sensibility and a stylistic interplay of detail shots - such as stones, door handles, and handrails - with larger architectural views. The images are accompanied by outstanding written contributions from Penny Sparke, Fabrizio Ballabio, Lisa Hockemeyer, Daniel Sherer, Brain Kish, and Grazia Signori, together bring a wealth of architecture, design, and natural stone expertise to guide the reader through the art-historical, social, and technical intricacies of the ingressi. As much an architectural city guide as an architectural study, the book provides the exact address and an annotated Milan map for all featured entryways, as well as the architect name and date of construction. In the well-documented realm of 20th-century Italian design, Kolbitz has stepped over the threshold and delivered a brand new area of enquiry in Milanese modernism. With the rigor of its multi-faceted research, poised photography, and breadth of its featured hallways, this is an invigorating new reference work and an inside look at the city's design DNA across high to low architecture.Text in English and Italian
Stará Praha štětcem a objektivem
Ve výpravné barevné publikaci autor porovnává vždy na dvoustraně půvabný 100 let starý akvarel českého krajináře a ilustrátora staré Prahy - Václava Jansy s fotografií zobrazeného místa v současnosti. Hlavní autorovou snahou bylo pořízení fotografií ve stejném měřítku a konfiguraci místa, jak je toto zobrazeno na původním Jansové obraze. Obě zobrazení konkrétního místa jsou doprovázeny zajímavým a čtivým textem. Původní akvarel je zdokumentován s historickými údaji, u současné fotografie je připojen text popisující dnešní stav.
Praha neznámá II
V druhém díle Prahy neznámé nás autor zavede do dalších méně známých pražských čtvrtí. Nejprve navštívíme Tichou Šárku, abychom prozkoumali zdejší usedlosti, mlýny a vily. Zavítáme také do Starých Střešovic, jež jsou se svými slepenci z domků, průchodů a schodišť skutečnou raritou mezi pražskými lokalitami. Chtěli byste vidět trampskou osadu a zůstat přitom v Praze? Při procházkách kolem Berounky jich zde najdete hned několik. Naší poslední zastávkou pak budou rybníky v okolí Dubče. Knihu lze použít jako průvodce přímo během vycházky, nebo jako virtuálního průvodce z pohodlí domova.
Architektura Albrechta z Valdštejna 2 svazky
Publikace Architektura Albrechta z Valdštejna: Italská stavební kultura v Čechách v letech 1600–1635, zpracovaná kolektivem autorů pod vedením Petra Uličného, seznamuje v dosud nebývalém rozsahu se stavebními podniky frýdlantského vévody, s jeho architekty a také s dalšími pozoruhodnými stavbami vznikajícími v té době v českých zemích. V druhém plánu se tu zjevuje v novém kontextu i složitá osobnost stavebníka a jeho jedinečný příspěvek k formování profilu vlastních staveb. Toto neobyčejně důkladné a zároveň inspirativní dílo se vyznačuje několika prvenstvími. Poprvé je tu představena Valdštejnova architektura v plné šíři od prvních fundací na Moravě před Bílou horou až po násilné ukončení vévodova života v roce 1634, přičemž těžiště knihy leží ve vylíčení historie pražského paláce a jičínských projektů. Poprvé jsou tu také prakticky v úplnosti vytěženy prameny z českých i zahraničních archivů, umožňující sledovat například postup stavby jičínského zámku takřka den po dni. Díky svým mimořádným znalostem dobových architektonických forem pak Petr Uličný odkrývá či naznačuje mnohdy nečekané souvislosti s evropskou architekturou oné doby. Na základě plánů, ikonografie a dobových svědectví je tu rovněž poprvé rekonstruována řada staveb zaniklých či nikdy nepostavených, z nichž mnohé byly dosud zcela neznámé.

A Kárpát-medence legkülönlegesebb Árpád-kori templomai II.
A Dunántúl és a Csallóköz legkülönlegesebb alaprajzi és építészeti sajátosságokat mutató, ősi templomai után a könyvsorozat második kötetében Németh Zsolt a Felvidék nyugati részének kilenc templomával foglalkozik, amelyhez tizedikként egy dunántúli csatlakozik. A szerző, aki a fizika tudomány kandidátusa friss szemmel tekint ezekre az épületekre, és vesz észre rajtuk olyan jellegzetességeket, amelyek korábbi vizsgálói figyelmét elkerülték.
A kiválasztott épületek tárgyalását a VI-XI. század kárpát-medencei történetének áttekintése vezeti be, amely túlnyúlik a bölcsészettudományok kínálta látóhatáron és az ismert régészeti leletek alapján élesen rámutat a fennálló történelmi kép súlyos fogyatékosságaira és ellentmondásaira. Külön fejezet foglalkozik a templomok szakralitásának kérdéskörével és azzal, hogy építőik világszemlélete miként tükröződik a kialakított formákban.
Németh Zsolt a tőle megszokott világos, közérthető stílusban sorakoztatja fel érveit. A könyv olyan, többnyire csak szakmai körökben ismert templomokat von reflektorfénybe, amelyek, bár a határainkon kívül állnak jelenleg, a magyar kulturális örökség elválaszthatatlan részei.
Jan Kaplicky Drawings
Jan Kaplicky (1937-2009) was a visionary architect with a passion for drawing. It was his way of discovering, describing and constructing; and through drawing he presented beguiling architectural imagery of the highest order. Many of his sketches, cutaway drawings and photomontages are brought together and celebrated in this book. These drawings date from the early years of his independent practice, Future Systems, in the 1970s, to his final ink drawings, executed in the mid-1990s. Featured projects range from design studies for the International Space Station, undertaken with NASA, to the Media Centre at Lord's Cricket Ground, in London, winner of the 1999 Stirling Prize.
Small Architecture
Saving space: Big ideas for small buildingsOver the years, talented architects have occasionally indulged themselves with the challenge of designing small but perfectly formed buildings. Today, with reduced budgets, many architects have turned in a more focused way to creating works that may be diminutive in their dimensions, but are definitely big when it comes to trendsetting ideas. Whether in Japanese cities, where large sites are hard to come by, or at the frontier between art and architecture, small buildings present many advantages, and push their designers to do more with less.A dollhouse for Calvin Klein in New York, a playhouse for children in Trondheim, pop-up stores for fashion stars, vacation cabins, and housing for victims of natural disasters are all part of the new rush to develop the great small architecture of the moment. The 2013 Pritzker Prize winner Toyo Ito is here, but so are emergent architects from Portugal, Chile, England, and New Zealand. Alvaro Siza and Kazuyo Sejima (SANAA) display their eye for tiny detail alongside artists Doug Aitken and Olafur Eliasson. From world-famous names to the freshest new talent, come discover architectural invention on a whole new, small scale.About the series: Bibliotheca Universalis-- Compact cultural companions celebrating the eclectic TASCHEN universe at an unbeatable, democratic price!Since we started our work as cultural archaeologists in 1980, the name TASCHEN has become synonymous with accessible, open-minded publishing.

Building Community
This is the first survey in many years to explore contemporary apartments not as raw canvases for interior decoration but as a building type of growing significance. An introduction presents the history of multiple-occupancy housing through its most innovative 20th-century exemplars, from the urbane blocks of Auguste Perret and Henri Sauvage in Paris, to the landscaped housing estates of Weimar Germany and the visionary schemes of Le Corbusier. The heart of the book features 38 recent and ongoing projects, designed by leading international studios and rising talents. Buildings range from social housing and micro apartments to 'vertical villages', megastructures and luxury high-rises. Each project is considered for the way in which it enriches the lives of residents and the city, and is shown through drawings and photographs, taken from the street and within. The book also includes interviews with such contemporary masters of apartment design as Michael Maltzan, Lorcan O'Herlihy, Edouard Francois and Bjarke Ingels.As our cities grow more crowded, it is critical that we produce large-scale buildings that enhance the lives of their inhabitants, their surroundings and the urban environment as a whole. Building Community offers dozens of proven successes to designers and apartment-dwellers.

Gropius
Walter Gropius (1883-1969) set out to build for the future. As the founding director of the Bauhaus, the Berlin-born architect had an inestimable influence on our aesthetic environment, championing a bold new hybrid of light, geometry, and industrial design, as dazzling today as it was a century ago.In this essential architect introduction, we survey the evolution and influence of a 20th-century visionary with 20 of his most significant projects, from the Bauhaus Building in Dessau, Germany to the Chicago Tribune Tower and Harvard University Graduate Center, completed after Gropius' exodus to the United States in 1937. We explore his role both as an architectural practitioner, and as a writer and educator, not only as a Bauhaus pioneer, but also, along with Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, as a leading proponent of the International Style.
Breuer
In 1956, TIME magazine called him one of the defining "form-givers of the 20th century." Today, Marcel Breuer (1902-1981) remains a locus classicus of modernism for architects and designers alike. As a Bauhaus pioneer, even his earliest work was marked by a material restraint; the balance of texture, color, and shape; and a symbiosis of local and global, big and small, rough and smooth.In this essential introductory monograph, we survey Breuer's complete career through some of his most influential projects and ideas, from his landmark tubular furniture to the MoMA Research House to his innovation of "binuclear" housing, splitting living and sleeping areas into separate wings. Along the way, we follow Hungarian-born Breuer's journey to international acclaim, with featured projects from Germany, France, England, Switzerland, and across the United States contributing to his global status as a modernist maestro.
Stavby a architekti pohledem Zdeňka Lukeše 2
Kniha je již druhý výběr z textů věnovaných architektuře, které autor Zdeněk Lukeš publikoval v sobotní příloze Orientace v Lidových novinách, tentokrát většinou v letech 2013–2016. Na rozdíl od předchozího svazku obsahuje i stavby mimo naše území.
Nejprve se setkáme s řadou známých i méně známých osobností domácí scény a jejich stavbami v Praze a dalších městech. Záměrem je upozornit na mnohá architektonická díla z období zhruba posledních 100 let, která si zaslouží naši péči či památkovou ochranu, neboť dokumentují myšlení a tvůrčí elán našich předchůdců.
Ve druhé části autor představuje budovy a jejich tvůrce v řadě zemí – v Lotyšsku, Portugalsku, ve Španělsku, v Dánsku, ve Slovinsku, v Chorvatsku, ve Velké Británii, v Izraeli, USA, Itálii, Polsku, Rakousku, Německu nebo Irsku. Upozorňuje také na vazby světových tvůrců k našemu území nebo vliv jejich tvorby na české projektanty.
