In Great Glass Buildings, Peter and Jennifer Hyatt present fifty exemplary modern projects that explore a number of theories about the nature, mystique and attraction of glass in the architecture of recent years. Variously performing roles that include giftwrap, lightweight armour, transmitter and insulator, glass began its re-emergence as an architectural force during the 1990s, as a symbol of new modernism. Advances in glass-making and construction technology and the advent of structural glazing, fixing systems, glass coatings and waterproof connections have transformed the ambitious dreams of the past into reality. Including projects by Foster and Partners, Murphy Jahn, Santiago Calatrava, Shigeru Ban, Renzo Piano and many others, this book reveals the complex nature of glass in today's architecture.

Designing With Solar Power encapsulates five years of work by more than 30 international experts from the fields of research, development and design. Photovoltaic power's potential for wide distribution makes it a unique and novel energy source that can be embedded within the fabric of individual buildings, shifting power generation away from being large-scale to being regionally located instead. As a consequence, an abundant amount of clean and silent electricity can be supplied to cities, towns and built-up areas. This informative publication shows a clear path to designing with photovoltaics in buildings and is a significant source book for any designer or individual who wishes to be kept informed of this important and evolving technology.

In the book, the AIA recognizes three years worth of award recipients across four categories: architecture, interior architecture, regional and urban design, and its esteemed Twenty-five Year Award. On one hand, these projects from 2010, 2011, and 2012 constitute a snapshot of architectural production – a moment in time and a record of “excellence” in that moment. On the other hand, it is a snapshot that speaks more broadly about evolving design trends – what has come before, in the first decade of the 21st century, and what we might expect more of in the following decade.

An international survey of the world's most exciting and influential furniture designers today.

Design in the 21st Century has liberated itself from industrial conditions and the associated physical demands. With new technology, expanded choice of materials and the practice of luxurious craftsmanship, designers are embracing design with scintillating attitude, challenging aesthetic boundaries and speculating new expressions in visual codes. Desire documents current developments in furniture and object design today, showcasing recent work by the most exciting and influential designers from around the globe categorised into four distinct trends and groups: Modernists, Taletellers, Inventors and Entertainers.

Design in the 21st Century has liberated itself from industrial conditions and the associated physical demands. The clean and simplified designs of Minimalism, where less is more and form follows function, is widely practised today but with new vigor and context. There is also an explosion of vibrant design today that breaks free from the minimal style of approach, prevailing in current design trends. With new technology, expanded choice of materials and a return to luxurious craftsmanship, designers are embracing design with scintillating attitude, challenging aesthetic boundaries and speculating new expressions in visual codes.

Desire is an up-to-date comprehensive survey on furniture and object design today, showcasing the crème de la crème of designers culled from around the world. It presents celebrated designers who represent the Modernists, creating sophisticated designs that are redefining the formal language of Modernism, blending the restraint of form with the refined use of materials. They are featured along with the inventors; visionary designers who continue to challenge our perception of design with futuristic shapes, and the experimental, innovative and often unprecedented use of materials.

Furthermore, Desire documents a wave of designers who are practicing a more playful approach to design and producing products that are tale-telling. It introduces designers that are merging various design disciplines to produce a new, expressive language. They show references to historical events and times, follow conceptual and materials processes and are decorative in nature with visually striking shapes and graphic motifs. The book also explores the growing area of design as art, exhibiting recent work by designers who are creating provocative one-off pieces and limited editions. Produced with experimental freedom and intended for a niche market, they are entertaining in nature and exhibited at prestigious design galleries and sold at international auction houses.

With a foreword and chapter introduction texts written by Andrej Kupetz, Managing Director of the German Design Council, as well as designer profiles, this indispensable reference provides valuable insight into the current state of furniture design practice. The pioneering examples in Desire will shape the future aesthetic of product, furniture and object design and pave the way we will live in the 21st Century.

Бетон – это противоречивый стройматериал: он наглядно иллюстрирует, как никакой другой материал, процесс изготовления текстуры в опалубке, но за поверхностью скрывает свою структуру. В общем-то, есть огромное желание более живых форм выражения, чем это предлагают совершенно гладкие бетонные поверхности. С другой стороны, такие новаторские разработки как самоуплотняющийся бетон или несущие конструкции из железобетона с улучшенными теплоизоляционными характеристиками показывают технический потенциал развития этого строительного материала. Строительство из бетона продолжает оставаться в движении.

Строительство для детей – детский сад ли, продленка ли или ясли – это, без сомнения, особый вызов профессионализму. Какой архитектурный язык при этом наиболее уместен? Как удается педагогической программе, проповедующей определенные ценности, реализовать себя в пространстве? Там, где дети знакомятся с миром и познают его, каждая деталь, так же как и качество примененных материалов, их цвета и поверхности, играют особую роль.
