Layout Maria, Lleonart Aitana, Castell Carballo Eugenia Contemporary Corporate Architecture
Throughout history, institutions and governments have always constructed large and ostentatious buildings as a way of demonstrating their power. By means of this aspect of design, many fast-growing, predominantly young but established companies have publicized their growth and shored up their identity at the same time. Contemporary Corporate Architecture has become a further element of a company's identity, achieved through the cooperation of several disciplines such as visual communications, marketing and graphic design, among many others. Sustainability is an aspect increasingly present in this type of architecture, which incorporates different elements to reduce environmental impacts, particularly in relation to the type of materials used in construction.

Costa Duran Sergi, Conxi Papio Layout Contemporary Landscape Architecture
The landscape architect shapes the terrain and the space around a pre-existing construction or a developing urban or regional project. His aim is to offer the most poetic transcription of the language associated with a given architectural calculation. These professionals work with animated and inanimate physical structures which spring from geographical and social contexts, as well as from technical and economical conditions. Their imagination is the motor behind the creative, competent and playful solutions. The fifty projects presented in this book primarily show the designs of new spaces and successful restoration of others, which had previously had completely different uses, like a quarry or an industrial center. An index with contact information on the respective architects and designers is enclosed.

Contemporary Japanese Architecture
Современная архитектура Японии уже давно считается одной из самых изобретательных в мире, признанной за устойчивость и безграничную креативность. Не менее семи японских архитекторов получили Притцкеровскую премию. С тех пор как на Всемирной выставке в Осаке-70 современные формы оказались в центре внимания, Япония стала ключевым игроком в мировой архитектуре. Со своим намеренно ограниченным словарным запасом геометрических форм Тадао Андо с тех пор поместил японское строительство на культурную карту мира, установив мост между Востоком и Западом. Вслед за в основном бетонными зданиями Андо появляются такие фигуры, как Кенго Кума (Японский национальный стадион, предназначенный для Олимпийских игр, первоначально запланированный на 2020 год), Сигэру Бан (Центр всемирного наследия горы Фудзи) и Кадзуё Сэдзима (Музей искусства XXI века в Канадзаве). Современное искусство) впервые применил более устойчивый подход. Молодое поколение успешно развивает новые направления японской архитектуры, гармонирующие с природой и связанные с традиционным строительством. Вместо того, чтобы планировать на чертежной доске, архитекторы, представленные в этой коллекции, выделяются своим бесконечным поиском форм, по-настоящему реагируя на окружающую среду. Представляя новейшие достижения японского строительства, эта книга показывает, что это уникальное творчество является плодом очень специфической ситуации в Японии, которая включает в себя высокую плотность населения, современную, эффективную экономику, долгую историю и постоянное присутствие катастроф в виде землетрясений. Принятие двусмысленности, как видно из мимолетных отражений музея Сэдзимы в Канадзаве, или постоянных изменений и угрозы катастрофы, является ключом к пониманию того, что отличает японскую архитектуру от архитектуры Европы или Америки. В этой книге размером XL рассказывается о 39 архитекторах и 55 выдающихся проектах японских мастеров — от Шанхайского политехнического театра Тадао Андо, концертного зала Сигэру Бана La Seine Musical, ферм SANAA Grace Farms, 4-го Всемирного торгового центра Фумихико Маки до гораздо меньшей устойчивой стоматологической клиники Такаши Суо. Каждый проект представлен фотографиями, оригинальными планами этажей и техническими чертежами, а также подробными описаниями и краткими биографиями. Подробное эссе прослеживает строительную сцену страны от периода «Метаболистов» до сегодняшнего дня и показывает, как взаимодействие прошлого, настоящего и будущего принесло современной японской архитектуре всемирное признание.The contemporary architecture of Japan has long been among the most inventive in the world, recognized for sustainability and infinite creativity.

A survey of Japan’s contemporary architecture scene The contemporary architecture of Japan has long been among the most inventive in the world, recognized for sustainability and infinite creativity. No fewer than seven Japanese architects have won the Pritzker Prize. Since Osaka World Expo ’70 brought contemporary forms center stage, Japan has been a key player in global architecture. With his intentionally limited vocabulary of geometric forms, Tadao Ando has since then put Japanese building on the world’s cultural map, establishing a bridge between East and West. In the wake of Ando’s mostly concrete buildings, figures like Kengo Kuma (Japan National Stadium intended for the Olympic Games, originally planned for 2020), Shigeru Ban (Mount Fuji World Heritage Center), and Kazuyo Sejima (Kanazawa Museum of 21st Century Art of Contemporary Art) pioneered a more sustainable approach. Younger generations have successfully developed new directions in Japanese architecture that are in harmony with nature and connected to traditional building. Rather than planning on the drawing board, the architects presented in this collection stand out for their endless search for forms, truly reacting on their environment. Presenting the latest in Japanese building, this book reveals how this unique creativity is a fruit of Japan’s very particular situation that includes high population density, a modern, efficient economy, a long history, and the continual presence of disasters in the form of earthquakes. Accepting ambiguity, as seen in the evanescent reflections of Sejima’s Kanazawa Museum, or constant change and the threat of catastrophe is a key to understanding what makes Japanese architecture different from that of Europe or America. This XL-sized book highlights 39 architects and 55 exceptional projects by Japanese masters—from Tadao Ando’s Shanghai Poly Theater, Shigeru Ban’s concert hall La Seine Musical, SANAA’S Grace Farms, Fumihiko Maki’s 4 World Trade Center, to Takashi Suo’s much smaller sustainable dental clinic. Each project is introduced with photos, original floor plans and technical drawings, as well as insightful descriptions and brief biographies. An elaborate essay traces the country’s building scene from the Metabolists to today and shows how the interaction of past, present, and future has earned contemporary Japanese architecture worldwide recognition.

Spectacular Buildings
Rather than merely fulfilling an aesthetic purpose, today's new buildings have cultural, political, and social importance, and only those that succeed in reflecting these values, in combination with a novel approach to the practice of architecture, can be considered as spectacular. Challenged by an increasingly complex urban context, the buildings must carefully integrate their designs into the existing urban fabric through a skillful and sensitive interpretation of the buildings' purpose and relationship with the public. Bearing in mind these issues and criteria, this book gathers a selection of contemporary projects completed within the last few years that exemplify the latest trends in the creation of prominent institutional, corporate, retail, cultural and educational facilities around the world. Издание на английском, французском и немецком языках.

Tchoban Sergei 30:70. Architecture as a Balancing Act
Never before have so many buildings been constructed as today, and never has architecture had so many technological and design possibilities at its disposal. And yet there is a sense of unease about contemporary architecture. In their book, Sergei Tchoban and Vladimir Sedov show how in modern times we have lost the balance between outstanding works of architecture and the background structures that surround them, with every building striving to assert itself in relation to all the others – to drown them out if it can. Yet the modern age is certainly capable of developing a harmony of contrasts – it has everything it needs at its disposal. After taking the reader on a foray through 2,500 years of architectural history, the authors arrive at the anomaly of modernism. They show what contemporary architecture must take into account if it is to achieve a satisfactory overall architectural impression that is harmonious in an entirely new way.

Barkhofen Eva-Maria Architecture in Archives
Master builders have been granted membership of the Akademie der Kunste since 1696, the year of its foundation. The earliest materials within the Archive documenting the art of architecture date back to the end of the 18th century and give testimony to the pursuits of tutors and pupils at the Akademie. It was not until the end of the 1950s under the post-war president of the Akademie in West Berlin, the architect Hans Scharoun, that bequests from architects began to be received into the Archive. This publication offers for the first time a comprehensive overview of the archives of architects, engineers, landscape architects, architectural photographers and critics, all of which have been bequeathed to the Architectural Archive of the Akademie der Kunste. All 71 archives and 80 collections are introduced with brief biographies of the original authors and descriptions denoting the nature and scope of the holdings. Friedrich Gilly from the Preu?ische Akademie der Kunste is, among others, represented with drawings. A particular abundance of documentation reflects the era of Expressionism following the First World War with the works of Hugo Haring, Hans Scharoun, Bruno Taut, Hans and Wassili Luckhardt, Alfons Anker, Paul Goesch, Adolf Behne and Heinrich Lauterbach. The archives of Richard Ermisch, Paul Baumgarten and Thilo Schoder date back as far as the 1920s. Particular emphasis is laid upon those architects forced to emigrate after 1933, among their number Gabriel Epstein, Julius Posener, Konrad Wachsmann, Adolf Rading and Harry Rosenthal. The post-war period and the 1960s are represented by the archives of Max Taut, Walter Rossow, Dieter Oesterlen, Bernhard Pfau, Ludwig Leo, Bernhard Hermkes, Helmut Hentrich, Werner Hebebrand, Hermann Henselmann, Werner Duttmann, Friedrich Spengelin and Heinz Graffunder. Archives and collections extending into the 21st century emanate from Kurt Ackermann, Hans-Busso von Busse, Peter von Seidlein, Manfred Sack, Jorg Schlaich, Szyszkowitz + Kowalski, Haus-Rucker-Co, Valentien + Valentien and Arno Brandlhuber. This publication also provides an overview of the history of the Architectural Archive and, with 906 images, sets out a selection of around 350,000 drawings and plans, 100,000 photographs, 450 models and provides over and above a very substantial amount of written archival materials.

Bognar Botond Japan. Architectural guide
Contemporary Japanese architecture has, for over half a century, achieved worldwide recognition not only for its highly innovative and often futuristic qualities, but also for its sensitive response to Japan's cultural and physical context, which has become especially challenging given the country's increasingly urbanised environment. Today, Japan's contemporary architecture is admired perhaps as much as its traditional counterpart, with which it often maintains a meaningful dialogue. Botond Bognar's Architectural Guide Japan introduces close to 700 of the most prominent examples of this fertile architecture, in addition to outlining its development from the mid-nineteenth century to the present in a concise historical essay. All texts are accompanied by about 930 colour photos, all taken by the author, and over 90 drawings. Detailed information about each entry is enhanced by geodata in the form of QR codes.
