Hadid
Radical space: How Zaha Hadid created a 21st-century architectureZaha Hadid was a revolutionary architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite winning critical acclaim. Some even said her audacious, futuristic designs were unbuildable.During the latter years of her life, Hadid s daring visions became a reality, bringing a unique new architectural language to cities and structures as varied as the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati, hailed by The New York Times as the most important new building in America since the Cold War; the MAXXI Museum in Rome; the Guangzhou Opera House in China; and the London 2012 Olympics Aquatics Centre.At the time of her unexpected death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among the elite of world architecture, recognized as the first woman to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the RIBA Royal Gold Medal, but above all as a giver of new forms, the first great architect of the noughties.From her early sharply angled buildings to later more fluid architecture that made floors, ceilings, walls, and furniture part of an overall design, this essential introduction presents key examples of Hadid s pioneering practice to study an artist, as much as an architect, who fought to break the old rules and crafted her own 21st-century universe.About the series: Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Architecture series features: an introduction to the life and work of the architect the major works in chronological order information about the clients, architectural preconditions as well as construction problems and resolutions a list of all the selected works and a map indicating the locations of the best and most famous buildings approximately 120 illustrations (photographs, sketches, drafts and plans)"
Lautner
Space age architecture: Going back to the future with the visionary West Coast architectMichigan-born architect John Lautner (1911 1994) was behind some of the most striking and innovative architectural designs in mid-20th-century America. Designing homes and commercial buildings primarily in Southern California, Lautner s innovative work captured the pioneering optimism of 1950s America, a time of space-age technology, economic growth, and affluence. Today, several of Lautner s houses are labeled Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monuments.Lautner s projects focused on the relationship between humans, space, and nature. He was always particularly sensitive to the surrounding environment and would often integrate water and natural landscapes into his designs. His houses are characterized by sweeping rooflines, glass-paneled walls, and steel beams, in a heady combination of fantasy and minimalism. Eschewing architectural orthodoxies, Lautner emphasized geometric shapes such as circles and triangles, incorporating myriad technological innovations.Ingenious uses of modern building materials such as concrete allowed him to blend his structures into unique locations in the Californian landscape, perching his sci-fi structures on hillsides, beaches, and deserts. Residences in the Los Angeles area, including the Chemosphere House and the Silvertop, boast panoramic views and still exude an almost otherworldly magnetism.In this new Basic Art guide, we take you into the heart of Lautner s idiosyncratic practice, discover his manifold influences and ideas, and survey the resulting gems of modern architecture."
Brick - A World History
This totally original architecture book - the first ever comprehensive study of brick - follows the story of brick from 5,000 bc to its use in building today, via the vast baths and basilicas of ancient Rome, through the wonders of Gothic brick in Germany, the majestic temples of Pagan and Mughal mosques in Iran, to its modern revival. Marvellously illustrated with spectacular, specially-taken photographs, Brick is at once an historical account of how bricks have been employed by architects of every period, a technical survey of brickmaking and bricklaying, and an essay in architectural and cultural history. The authors have applied their expert visual and technical knowledge to more than one hundred themes, from bricks in ancient Egypt to their distinctive use by such modern masters as Louis Kahn, Alvar Aalto and Renzo Piano. Great works of engineering - viaducts, tunnels and bridges - are given prominence alongside great cathedrals and country houses, temples and mosques, testifying to the incredible versatility and importance of bricks and brickwork.
Architecture in Wood - A World History
Wood has unique qualities, yet is undervalued or ignored in histories of architecture. However, leading designers around the world are increasingly drawn to it to satisfy social and environmental needs. Will Pryce, the most admired architectural photographer in Britain, has travelled the world seeking both famous and obscure buildings in wood. Intensely dramatic but not over-dramatized, technically flawless, but not merely documentary, his photographs convey all the excitement of encountering these amazing structures first hand. In the substantial text he shows how the wooden heritage of Japan grew from its Buddhist history; how Russia's carpenters determined its iconic domes; how Norway's stave churches contain clues to her pagan past; how Turkic tribes brought the yali from Asia; how the settlers of New England would use a provincial English tradition on the new continent; and how, today, sophisticated architects such as Peter Zumthor and Renzo Piano are inventing an eloquent new wooden architecture.

Calatrava
Futuristic fusion: A poetry of architecture, art, and engineeringSpanish visionary Santiago Calatrava is renowned around the world as an architect, structural engineer, sculptor, and artist. Famed for bridges as much as buildings, he has made his name with neofuturistic structures that combine deft engineering solutions with dramatic visual impact.From the Athens 2004 Olympic sports complex and the Museum of Tomorrow to the Peace Bridge, Calgary; Alamillo Bridge in Seville; and the Mujer Bridge in Buenos Aires, Calatrava s creations show particular interest in the meeting point of movement and balance. With influences ranging from NASA space design to da Vinci s nature studies, the structures dazzle with a sense of lightness, agility, and aerodynamism, but always with a graceful poise amid their particular surroundings.This compact introduction explores Calatrava s unique aesthetic with key projects from his career, from early breakthroughs to his most recent work. Through buildings of culture, science, faith, and across his many famous bridges, we explore his integration of organic forms and human movements, and a uniquely fluid futurism, soaring towards tomorrow.About the series: Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Architecture series features: an introduction to the life and work of the architect the major works in chronological order information about the clients, architectural preconditions as well as construction problems and resolutions a list of all the selected works and a map indicating the locations of the best and most famous buildings approximately 120 illustrations (photographs, sketches, drafts and plans)"
Piano
Building virtuoso: The exploration and iconoclasm of an Italian masterWhile some architects have a signature style, Renzo Piano seeks to apply coherent ideas to extraordinarily different projects. His buildings impress as much for their individual impact as for their diversity of scale, material, and form.Piano rose to international prominence with his codesign 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 many high-profile cultural spaces, including the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago; the Morgan Library Renovation and Expansion in New York; 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 New York and London, the Renzo touch has also transformed the skyline with the towers of the New York Times Building and the Shard, the tallest building in the European Union.This essential introduction travels from Osaka, Japan, to Bern, Switzerland, and through many cities, structures, and islands in between, to explore the staggering scope of the Renzo Piano repertoire. From the inside-out Pompidou to the airy shells of the Tjibaou Cultural Center in Noumea, New Caledonia, this is a thrilling journey through the beauty of architecture, where, in Piano s own words, each time, it is like life starting all over again.

Lacná kniha Nagyőr Szent Anna-temploma (-25%)
A római katolikus Szent Anna-templom a XV. században épült gótikus stílusban. Német forrás szerint már a XII. században állt e helyen egy, a strázsákat szolgáló erődtemplom.
Templomunk egyhajós, torony nélküli egyház, a legkisebb azok közül, amelyeket eddig bemutattunk.
Keletelt, föltehetően a július 26-i Szent Anna-napján kelő Naphoz igazítva. Zsindely fedi, ahogy a szentély ablakait elválasztó támpilléreket is az óvja esőtől, hótól. A két keresztboltos szakaszos szentély (8,3 × 5,4 m) az apszis felé Y leágazású bordákkal fél-nyolcszögzáródású. Szélesebb hajója (8,7 × 8,6 m) osztatlan, két keresztboltos szakasszal. A templomnak négy csúcsíves ablaka van, három a szentélyben, egy a hajó déli oldalán nyílik. A kétosztású ablakok mérműkoronája egyszerű díszű. Szokatlan, hogy az apszis közepén, a főoltár mögött nincs ablaknyílás. Déli oldalán nyílik a nyeregtetős, tágas belépő félköríves boltívű bejárata, amelyen át kis zárt előtérbe jutunk. Ugyancsak toldalék az északi oldalon található sekrestye.
Ez a típus jellemző az egykorú falusi templomokra. Nagyőrön 1629-ig faharangláb töltötte be a torony szerepét, ez után épült a vidékre jellemző reneszánsz harangtorony.
Nagyőr ismert első említése, Eur (Őr) 1251-ből való. Az Árpád-korban az északi gyepűt őrző kabar és székely határőröknek, "Szent László lándzsásainak" települése volt. A régi írásokban "gumururuk"-nak, gömörőröknek, ardóknak (erdőóvóknak) nevezett határőröket gyepűvonalukon az ősi magyar tízes katonai-polgári-vallási szervezeti rendben telepítették le. A "szepsi tízlándzsások székét", melyet egy 1243-as oklevél nobiles sub decem lanceis costituti néven említ, Betlenfalváról (Betlanovcéről) irányították.
Nemesek voltak, és leszármazottaik egészen a XIX. századig függetlenek maradtak a szepesi ispánságtól, a későbbi királyi vármegyétől és az autonóm szász tartománytól. A lándzsás falvakat, a kor helyőrségeit, kaszárnyáit mindenkor elkülönítették a polgárvárosoktól, Aquincum példázza ezt már az ókorban is.
A tatárjárás után német hospesekkel telepítették újra. A Szepes vármegyei falu 1919-ig Magyarországhoz tartozott. Német lakosságát a II. világháború után kitelepítették Németországba. 1976-ban Szepesbélához csatolták.
Nagyőr pirinyó kis falu. Ha Szepesbéla felől közelítjük meg, templomtorony híján először észre sem vesszük dombhajlatok közt megbúvó házait. Nagyőrt sok minden összeköti Kisszebennel is: közelségük, birtokos családjaik, középkori pecsétjükön. A nagyőrin ugyanúgy Keresztelő Szent János tálra tett fej van kivésve, mint az Kisszeben és Szepesolaszi pecsétjén és címerében látható. A Kisszebenhez képest kis Nagyőr kis temploma csupán egyhajós, tornya sincs, és "csak" három oltára van, de rossz állapotuk ellenére csodás falképei miatt is megérdemli, hogy bemutassák.

Landscapes of Communism
"In the craven world of architectural criticism Hatherley is that rarest of things: a brave, incisive, elegant and erudite writer, whose books dissect the contemporary built environment to reveal the political fantasies and social realities it embodies." (Will Self). During the course of the twentieth century, communism took power in Eastern Europe and remade the city in its own image. Ransacking the urban planning of the grand imperial past, it set out to transform everyday life, its sweeping boulevards, epic high-rise and vast housing estates an emphatic declaration of a non-capitalist idea. Now, the regimes that built them are dead and long gone, but from Warsaw to Berlin, Moscow to post - Revolution Kiev, the buildings, their most obvious legacy, remain, populated by people whose lives were scattered and jeopardized by the collapse of communism and the introduction of capitalism. Landscapes of Communism is an intimate history of twentieth-century communist Europe told through its buildings; it is, too, a book about power, and what power does in cities. Most of all, Landscapes of Communism is a revelatory journey of discovery, plunging us into the maelstrom of socialist architecture. As we submerge into the metros, walk the massive, multi-lane magistrale and pause at milk bars in the microrayons, who knows what we might find?
100 Contemporary Houses

The Battle for Home
Drawing on the author's personal experience of living and working as an architect in Syria, this book offers an eyewitness perspective on the country's bitter conflict through the lens of architecture, showing how the built environment offers a mirror to the community that inhabits it. From Syria's tolerant past, with churches and mosques built alongside one another in Old Homs and members of different religions living harmoniously together, the book chronicles the recent breakdown of social cohesion in Syria's cities, with the lack of shared public spaces intensifying divisions within the community and corrupt officials interfering in town planning for their own gain, actions symptomatic of wider abuses of power. With first-hand accounts of mortar attacks and stories of refugees struggling to find a home, this compelling and original book explores the personal impact of the conflict and offers hope for how architecture can play a role in rebuilding a sense of identity within a damaged society.
Olafur Eliasson
Unspoken Spaces is a richly illustrated journey through spheres, tunnels, towers, walkways and archways, as well as pavilions and larger buildings realized by artist Olafur Eliasson and his studio since the late 1990s.
