Монографии и сборники работ известных архитекторов

For the last two decades, Mona Hajj has been crafting interiors that combine a global vision with an American emphasis on elegance, comfort, and simplicity. Hajj’s body of work is grounded in classicism yet influenced by the contemporary; her international upbringing - she was born in Africa and educated in Europe, Lebanon, and the United States - is evidenced in exceptional rugs, antiques, and fixtures.

Interior Visions showcases Hajj’s distinct and distinctly original aesthetic voice. Beautifully photographed projects - from a beach house in Delaware to a John Russell Pope–designed house in Baltimore, from an apartment in New York City to the Embassy of Luxembourg in Washington, D.C. - display a thoughtful treatment of architecture, color, and lighting, as well as an eye for the defining detail. Among the myriad culturally and historically diverse adornments are Persian rugs, Flemish tapestries, Japanese screens, Italian chandeliers, and Chinese chargers. Finally, two residences presented in great detail - the author’s own apartment in a historic Baltimore building and an expansive horse farm in Kentucky - demonstrate a vision that is at once specific and inclusive, personal and grand, intimate and sumptuous.

Islands - real, artificial, and metaphoric - have always fascinated people. Buildings near, or even in water transcend boundaries and merge concrete, familiar structures with flowing visions to create symphonies of water, light and stone. Examples of the mastery of this interplay of elements are provided by Abu Dhabi's Saadiyat museum island, artificial city suburbs such as Crystal Island in Moscow, and even entire new cities such as Island City in Japan. Apart from such dynamic urban centres, Dubai's luxury islands or the world's most expensive hotel, the Burj al Arab, are also architectural highlights. Visions of the future by renowned architects such as Jean Nouvel, Frank O. Gehry, Zaha Hadid, and Foster & Partners are also presented. This illustrated work is a fascinating journey through the island worlds of today, tomorrow, and the day after.

Inseln – tatsächliche, künstliche und metaphorische – faszinieren die Menschen seit jeher. Gebäude am oder gar im Wasser überschreiten Grenzen und verschmelzen feste gewohnte Strukturen mit fließenden Visionen zu Sinfonien aus Wasser, Licht und Stein. Dieses Spiel der Elemente beherrschen beispielsweise Mur Island in Graz, Abu Dhabis Museumsinsel Saadjat Island, künstliche Stadteile wie Crystal Lake in Moskau oder komplett neue urbane Entwicklungen wie Dubais Luxusinseln meisterhaft. Neben solchen spektakulären Zentren bilden das Oslo Opera House oder das teuerste Hotel der Welt, das Burj el-Arab, architektonische Glanzpunkte. Vorgestellt werden auch die Zukunftsvisionen renommierter Architekten wie Herzog & de Meuron, Waterstudio.NL, Zaha Hadid und Foster + Partners. Dieser Bildband ist ein faszinierender Streifzug durch die Inselwelten von heute, morgen und übermorgen.

This monograph charts the evolution of Hasegawa's design process from her largely formal work of the late 1970s and early 80s to a more social architecture in recent years. This evolution has allowed her to explore not only the problems of form, as in her earlier residential architecture, but also the issues of program, which she couldn't address in the design of houses. Projects featured here include the Shonandai Cultural Center, the Sumida Cultural Factory and the Museum of Fruit.

Stressing total quality in all aspects of architectural practice, the J.J. Pan monograph features a rich collection of building types.

This latest volume of NeoArchitecture presents the work of French firm Jakob + MacFarlane, a firm proclaimed as a highly promising collaborative, representing the best in emerging French architecture and architectural sensibility. The work of Dominique Jakob and Brendan MacFarlane engages the capture and articulation of movement, both ethereal and real, in order to articulate a dynamic sensibility in their work. Jakob + MacFarlane achieve sophistication in their design schemes by employing high-end digital computer technology in their design process. Indeed, their use of the computer and computer-aided modeling in pursuing formal strategies and design outcomes positions their practice at the forefront of avant garde architecture practices operating today. This volume showcases built architectural projects, either already completed or currently under construction, as well as theoretical and exhibition projects. Sales Points: Latest volume in IMAGES' NeoArchitecture series on the next generation of master architects. Introduction by Christian Girard. Showcases the work of young, experimental architects with detailed photographs, renderings, plans and text. Features internationally recognised projects such as Restaurant Georges at the Pompidou Centre and the equally innovative Florence Lowey Bookshop, both in Paris.

The British architect James Frazer Stirling (1924-1992) stimulated impassioned responses among both supporters and detractors, and he continues to be the subject of fierce debate. He earned international renown through such innovative and frequently controversial projects as the Leicester University Engineering building (1959-63); the History Faculty building at Cambridge University (1964-67); the Neue Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart (1977-84); the Clore Gallery at Tate Britain (1984); and the Arthur M. Sackler Museum at Harvard University (1979-84). Stirling was also a visiting professor at the Yale School of Architecture where he trained and influenced many of the current leaders in the field.

Fully illustrated with previously unpublished documents and new photography from the James Stirling/Michael Wilford Archive at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal, this book allows for a close examination of design drawings, photographs, and models spanning Stirling's entire career. These materials deepen our understanding of the influences, early formation, approach, and process of an architect whose work resists labelling. Filled with in-depth analytical and critical presentations of exemplary projects and their reception, the volume reveals Stirling to be a remarkably informed and consistent thinker and writer on architecture.
