1950 – 1954: Architecture of the avant-garde
The early 1950s were characterized by great optimism, as memories of World War II receded. Architecture and design sought new forms, materials and applications – and domus captured the mood with detailed reports on Tapio Wirkkala, Finn Juhl, Carlo de Carli, Carlo Mollino, Piero Fornasetti, Harry Bertoia and George Nelson; via features on Le Corbusier’s famous Unité d’Habitation; the Case Study Houses of Charles and Ray Eames; Richard Neutra in California and Oscar Niemeyer in Brazil; and the futuristic Olivetti Showroom by Studio BBPR in New York. This book offers a superb overview of international architecture of the avant-garde in the early '50s.

1955–1959: International affairs
The late 50s was an era of grand visions and increasing internationalization, as evidenced by the works included here by architects and designers like Oscar Niemeyer, Carlos Raúl Villanueva, Vittoriano Viganò, and Angelo Mangiarotti. Also featured are office machines by Olivetti, furniture by Ray and Charles Eames, ceramics and lights by Ettore Sottsass, the Herman Miller Showroom by Alexander Girard in San Francisco, Le Corbusier’s pilgrimage church in Ronchamp and Gio Ponti’s Villa Arreaza in Caracas.

1960–1964: Design goes pop
The early '60s saw the rise of Pop Art and popular culture, leading to Pop Design–particularly in interiors, where new synthetics and plastics replaced metal, glass or wood, leading to radical new designs. Volume V features designs by Ray and Charles Eames, Verner Panton, Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, and Joe Colombo. In architecture, buildings by Gio Ponti, Carlo Scarpa, Angelo Mangiarotti, James Stirling, and Eero Saarinen are among the highlights.

1965–1969: Looking to the future
In the late '60s, architecture and design changed radically. Functionality, elegance, and faithfulness to materials gave way to experimentation and exploration. Archizoom and Archigram questioned status symbols and consumerism, reflected in the Anti and Radical Design movements. Also featured are Joe Colombo, Ettore Sottsass, Gae Aulenti, Olivier Mourgue, Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Verner Panton, Kenzo Tange, Luigi Moretti, Oscar Niemeyer, and Gio Ponti.

1970–74: Individuality reigns supreme
The early '70s saw seismic changes in architecture and design, as a trend towards individuality manifested in novel styles and construction methods. Futuristic work by Luigi Moretti stood in contrast to practical designs by Renzo Piano or Richard Rogers; elsewhere the first postmodern tendencies could be detected. Japanese architect Kisho Kuramata created metabolic buildings and city planning, while the living landscapes of designers Verner Panton and Joe Colombo opened new vistas.

1975–1979: First signs of ecological awareness
The mid–'70s saw a global energy crisis resulting from oil shortages. As a result, architecture and design moved to embrace alternative resources, ecological building methods, and recyclable materials. Featured are postmodern buildings by Richard Meier, the modernistic structures by Foster Associates, the Centre Georges Pompidou by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers, and the work of the Japanese architects Arata Isozaki and Kisho Kurakawa. Also included are designs for transport systems, office machines, and electrical appliances.

1980 – 1984: Postmodern preoccupations
The early '80s saw the rise of Postmodernism. Italian design groups Alchimia and Memphis, led by Alessandro Mendini, Andrea Branzi, Michele de Lucchi, and Ettore Sottsass, questioned the functionality of design objects. Everyday items and classic designs were reinterpreted with ironic relish. In architecture, similar ideas took shape in the buildings of Hans Hollein, Michael Graves, Studio Nizzoli, and the offices of Venturi, Rauch & Scott Brown, while deconstructivist tendencies were recognizable in early designs by Zaha Hadid.

1985–1989: The eighties in full force
Along with the Postmodern - buildings, interior decoration, and designs by Peter Shire, Richard Meier, Gustav Peichl, Ricardo Bofill, Ettore Sottsass, Arata Isozaki, and Arquitectonica – the High-Tech Style was dominant, led by the Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation offices by Foster Associates, and the Lloyds Building by Richard Rogers. Contemporary avant-garde led with designs by Daniel Libeskind in Berlin. In product design, furniture and lamps by Alberto Meda and Philippe Starck were published in domus for the first time.

1990–1994: The next generation
The early 1990s saw a generational shift in architecture and design: domus documented the rise of architects Tadao Ando, Jean Nouvel, David Chipperfield, Philippe Starck, Rem Koolhaas, Peter Eisenman, Jacques Herzog, and Pierre de Meuron, while still featuring architectural greats like Frank O. Gehry, Mario Bellini, Richard Meier, Renzo Piano, Norman Foster, and Santiago Calatrava. In product design, Marc Newson, Rodney Kinsman, Jasper Morrison and Fernando and Humberto Campana made waves.

Doors and windows are distinctive elements of a building’s style. They define a building’s appearance, as well as playing a crucial role in ventilation, lighting, and insulation. This comprehensive round-up features the many door and window types available today, including the most recent technical advances and design trends, with a focus on innovative materials, styles and shapes. Showcasing a multitude of design challenges and solutions, this volume is an invaluable reference and inspiration for the architect, homeowner, or interior decorator.

There are billions of doors around the world and, just like people, each and every one is different.

Doors are a barrier between reality and imagination, and the portal between private and public. And therein lies their sense of mystery: without opening them we will never know what or who lies behind them. Our curious nature leads us to wonder what is beyond, and we only have what we see in front of us to go by, but take a closer look and you will discover that every door tells its own story. Whether it’s the particular shade of paint, the texture of the finish, an extravagant knocker, the plant that scrambles around the frame or an elegantly turned handle, every door reveals the secret of its past, its present, its culture and the person who lives behind it.

This book showcases a variety of beautiful doors chosen for their wide-ranging appeal and celebrates the everyday beauty of something we take for granted – doors.

For anyone interested in architecture, history, travel or world cultures, doors have a special fascination. In addition to welcoming guests and keeping out intruders, a door creates the first impression of a building and provides a sense of welcome, security and peace.

This fascinating book contains more than 500 photographs of doors from around the world. There are doors made of wood, metal and glass, doors old and new, and doors polished and weathered. Some were made to impress and to show off the majesty and importance of the building they serve, and some were hastily constructed as simply as possible and with whatever materials were at hand. They come from, and evoke, many cultures and traditions.

This wide-ranging and delightful collection provides a wealth of ideas and inspiration for anyone interested in architecture, construction, design or decorative arts.
