Style, materials, techniques, and values are the focus of this richly illustrated guide to pen drawing. In addition to proposing solutions for practical problems, the book offers advice on architectural and decorative drawing. More than 70 drawings by assorted artists range from tranquil churchyards and bustling city streets to striking posters. Many of the images are derived from The Century Magazine, Harper's Magazine, The Architectural Review, and other illustrated periodicals of the early twentieth century. Irish-American architect Charles D. Maginnis, a co-founder of the firm Maginnis & Walsh, was active in the design of ecclesiastical and campus buildings across the United States. He also served as President of the American Institute of Architects. Maginnis' practical guide to pen drawing features several of his own illustrations, created expressly for this instructive volume.
A sketch is a way to both think and remember at the same time. As architects, it is one of our main tools for experiencing the world.Each of the sketches included has its own voice and character; its own independence. We started putting these pieces together on their own page as originally drawn, but something unexpected happened... We began overlaying certain sketches, allowing for serendipitous relationships to blossom. As the drawings began to stack, what became important was no longer their original context, but the juxtapositions of line weights, tones, textures, and rhythms. It also emphasized the individual signature of each artist's lines. this book includes drawings completed across many places and times, by two different artists with their own approaches. Jason and Giovanni met during architecture school and have long learned from each other. This is their first published book of sketches. We hope that you enjoy these unexpected moments as much as we did finding them.

Der Band versammelt Bauten und Projekte, die seit 2009 im Atelier Scheidegger Keller entstanden sind. Die Sammlung ist keine traditionelle Architektenmonografie, sondern gleicht vielmehr dem Logbuch einer Schiffsreise, in dem alle Daten und Handlungen der Reise aufgezeichnet sind. So dokumentieren hier Modelle, Diagramme, Codes, Texte, Karten, Pläne, Skizzen, Mock-ups, Bau- und Detailpläne, Ingenieur- und Werkstattzeichnungen, Baustellenbilder und Fotoserien den Prozess und die räumliche, typologische und konstruktive Recherche. In der Summe ergibt sich ein unmittelbarer Einblick in die vielschichtige Arbeitsweise und Gedankenwelt des Ateliers Scheidegger Keller.Zu den vier realisierten Bauten zählen das viel beachtete Haus mit zwei Stützen in Wilen (2014) und das Studierendenwohnhaus Rosengarten in Zürich-Wipkingen (2020) mit seinen roh materialisierten doppelgeschossigen Hallen und Loggien.This volume compiles the buildings and projects produced by Atelier Scheidegger Keller since 2009. The collection is not a traditional architectural monograph, but is instead comparable to the logbook of a ship's voyage: all the particulars and the actions of the voyage are recorded here. Models, diagrams, codes, texts, maps, plans, sketches, mock-ups, building and detail plans, engineering and workshop drawings, building-site images and photo series all document the process, as well as the spatial, typological and constructive research involved. The result is direct insight into the multifaceted working methods and conceptual world of Atelier Scheidegger Keller.The four constructed buildings include the highly-acclaimed House with two columns in Wilen (2014) and the Rosengarten student accommodation in Zurich-Wipkingen (2020), with its raw materialisation and double-storey halls and loggias.
This book tells a new story about twentieth-century architecture in Denmark. For the first time ever, readers get an overall picture of the key contribution made by women to the architecture of Danish welfare society in the period 1930–1980.The book’s five chapters present hitherto untold stories about how architecture comes into being through creative collaborations that cut across genders and professional disciplines. Women have contributed to all aspects of architecture, from kitchens and buildings to landscape architecture and urban planning, and their stories highlight the hidden diversity that has shaped Denmark’s buildings, cities and landscapes. The importance of this diversity must be understood and appreciated in the present if we are to create new ways of living and building in the future – a pressing need in light of the many crises we face as a society today.The book was written by Jannie Rosenberg Bendsen, Svava Riesto and Henriette Steiner as part of the research project Women in Danish Architecture at the University of Copenhagen.
Dense, organic cities with interconnected building structures and easily accessed common urban spaces. Cities that offer variety, vibrancy and architectural qualities that tempt people to go exploring on foot or by bike. Cities that have a sense of openness, make people feel safe and create opportunities for conversations in public spaces. Cities that are rooted in tradition and a respect for cultural heritage. Cities that provide meeting places in a setting conducive to cultural cohesion. Social and sensory cities.This book points to urban blocks as the structure best suited to promoting sustainable building developments and cities. Its first part presents some urban qualities that have evolved from the urban block as a fundamental, flexible element. These examples have been selected from European block cities as well as from old and new urban districts in Copenhagen.The second part of the book outlines the elements of the urban block city and its potential, proposing 10 principles that underpin an action-oriented platform for transforming older urban districts or planning new ones.
This book compiles Adamo-Faiden's inventory along with the inventions this body of work distills. Images, drawings and texts are presented in the formof diptychs, forcing the reader to establish subjective bridges between both documents. Adamo-Faiden is an architecture studio established in Buenos Aires by Sebastian Adamo and Marcelo Faiden. Their practice extends to the field of teaching and research, and has been internationally recognized by different media and institutions. Their works were exhibited at the Sao Paulo Architecture Biennial, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Venice Architecture Biennale, the Chicago Architecture Biennial, the LIGA Architecture gallery in Mexico, the Deutsches Architekturmuseum in Frankfurt, the Storefront for Art & Architecture in New York, and at Princeton University School of Architecture.>Inventory's sequential accumulation proposes a journey through two decades of work designed by its authors and positions Adamo-Faiden's architecture between material organization and intellectual speculation.
The region of the Himalayas and the adjoining Tibetan plateau is known for its unique and characteristic vernacular architecture and housing culture which is slowly but surely disappearing. The first part of the book analyses 21 traditional houses in the region that respond in diverse ways to the specifics of their location and local climate. The second part presents a comparative study of the construction elements - walls, roof and façades - using photographs and hand-drawn construction details. The newly produced scale drawings provide an excellent basis for comparative review. Detailed plans, atmospheric photographs and informative texts take the reader on a journey through a fascinating building culture.
The changes in history and the spread of global culture and economics have brought about significant and frightening risks worldwide. These range from the destruction of cities through violent conflict to the impact of climate change and an increase in natural disasters. Additionally, there's been a vast widening of economic and social inequality. Venice is in danger of sinking, many cities around the world are facing earthquakes, and the gap between poverty and wealth is becoming increasingly visible in many cities. Today, humanity faces monumental challenges that demand a complete transformation of our living spaces. Cities Under Pressure presents a new approach to design - a flexible system that aims to establish a dynamic balance, constantly adapting to change. This innovative concept imagines new urban environments that move away from rigid design principles and instead embrace evolving mechanisms. These mechanisms support a sustainable transition, ensuring a resilient and peaceful future for our cities.
Wie Architektur zum Medium wurde Unter Bedingungen der Moderne interagiert Architektur in und mit Netzen: Lange bevor sie mit digitalen Apparaten zu kommunizieren begannen, wurden Häuser von technischen Systemen durchdrungen, Bauten als Knotenpunkte in Verkehrsinfrastrukturen konzipiert und die immer größeren Gebäudekomplexe mit Informationssystemen überlagert. Architektur wurde damit auch selbst als Medium begriffen, das Zugänge, Anschlüsse und Abschirmungen organisiert. Der Band präsentiert aktuelle Positionen einer medien- und kulturwissenschaftlich ausgerichteten Architekturforschung. Im Fokus steht dabei die Frage, wie Architektur als ein Medium unter anderen Medien zur Entstehung neuer Raumverhältnisse beiträgt, die Wissen, Subjektivität und soziales Verhalten ebenso verändern wie Klima und Umwelt. Deutsche Medienwissenschaft trifft angloamerikanische Architekturgeschichte Eine aktuelle Sicht auf die Medialität der Architektur Mit Beiträgen von Zeynep Çelik Alexander, Christoph Asendorf, Beatriz Colomina, Mark Crinson, Moritz Gleich, Tom Holert, Christa Kamleithner, Reinhold Martin, Roland Meyer, Bernhard Siegert und Meredith TenHoor
Extended methods of analysis for urbanisation processes illustrated in eight world regions. Urbanisation processes are unfolding far beyond the realm of agglomerations, profoundly transforming agrarian areas, rain forests, deserts and oceans. Inextricably bound to the earth's ecologies, these developments are causing manifold planetary crises which require urgent scrutiny and call for new conceptions and cartographies of the urban beyond-the-city. Through detailed analysis and fieldwork captured in text, photographs and hand-drawn maps, the book portrays the effects of extended urbanisation in eight world regions. It offers a redefinition of the very notions of the "city", "urban" and "urbanisation" and outlines new urban agendas developed to address planetary challenges. This book decenters the perspective on the urban, foregrounds urban struggle, and transcends rural-urban and north-south divides. Fundamental book for urbanism studies Redefinition of the terms "city", "urban" and "urbanisation" Analysis of urbanisation processes in eight world regions
Wohnqualität und Urbanität - Baumgartnerhäuser in Basel Zwischen 1926 und 1938 erstellte die Baufirma Baumgartner & Hindermann in Basel rund 300 Mehrfamilienhäuser, die sich in fünf Quartieren ringförmig um das Stadtzentrum gruppieren. Als "Baumgartnerhäuser" sind sie bis heute in Basel ein Begriff: Man schätzt ihre selbstverständliche städtebauliche Einordnung und die hohe Wohnqualität, die sich in den gut proportionierten, polyvalenten Räumen und der soliden Materialisierung manifestiert. Diese detailreiche Dokumentation zeigt, dass sich unternehmerische Beweggründe, eine Rationalisierung des Entwurfs- und Bauprozesses und gute Architektur nicht widersprechen müssen. Hier entstand eine Serie von auch nach heutigen Maßstäben beispielhaften Wohnblöcken, die bewusst dem "Mittelmaß" folgten und doch eine hoch entwickelte Urbanität und Qualität erreichten. Einzige umfangreiche Monografie über die Baumgartnerhäuser in Basel Wieder lieferbar in der 3. Auflage: Historische Dokumentation zu einer Serie erfolgreicher Mehrfamilienhäuser Noch heute maßstabsetzend betreffend Wohnqualität und Urbanität
An insightful and engagingly narrated exploratory work on a pioneer of modern architecture from Switzerland The Queen Alexandra Sanatorium in Davos is a masterpiece of early modernist architecture by the Swiss architects Pfleghard & Haefeli (Schatzalp, Davos) and the renowned civil engineer and bridge builder Robert Maillart. A new form of architecture was forged here, full of contradictions and compromises and the result of intense collaboration between engineer, architect, and client. It stands at the threshold of modernism, which is largely characterized by the use of reinforced concrete. Apart from certain early mentions in architectural history, very little has been written about this Swiss precursor of modernist architecture. Drawing on numerous archival records, Daniel Korwan now provides the first detailed chronology of this 1909 building, thus expanding the record on the historical reception of modernism. First publication on a Swiss building that prefigured modern architecture Unpublished illustrations and plans of the Queen Alexandra Sanatorium in Davos Insightful and engagingly narrated new contribution to the study of 20th century modernism

At the same time, it introduces models of interactivity ranging from dynamic and shapechanging materials to wearables, architecture, and transdisciplinary and alternative design methods. History of the development of interactive design Overview of the state of the art and its possibilities Models of interactivity in theory and practice
Iconic buildings commissioned by women. The contribution of women to 20th-century modernism still receives relatively little attention. The male architects are still in the limelight, while the achievements of their female partners, colleagues, classmates, and clients are poorly researched. This book fills an important gap in our understanding of the history of architecture from 1900 onward, and sheds new light on the women who commissioned numerous ambitious building projects from young avant-garde architects. The authors Kerstin Bussmann and Ingrid de Becque present the results of their research for the first time in this book and recount the genesis of many iconic international buildings. First comprehensive publication on iconic buildings commissioned by women History of 20th-century Modernism with a new focus Illustrated and easy to read scholarly documentation Available in English and German language (Frauen bauen die Moderne, ISBN 9783035625424)
Designing with living materials: thoughts on the paradigm shift and an overview of the state of research What is "Bioprotopia"? It is a vision of a world with buildings that grow, self-heal and create virtuous cycles where waste from one process feeds another. A vision where the spaces that we inhabit are attuned to both the human occupants and non-human microbial ecologies. This is the first book to ground the concept of biotechnology in the built environment in tangible, large-scale prototypes. With rich visuals, it presents materials and processes that bring to life the many possibilities of shaping the built environment with micro-organisms. In addition to considering scientific and technical challenges, the book also discusses the need for a shift in thinking and culture to realise this vision. First comprehensive publication on the state of research Demonstrates the use of renewable materials in design Illustrative, scientific documentation for design professions and researchers
Cartography as an instrument for the analysis of urbanisation processes The speed, scale and scope of urbanisation have increased dramatically in recent decades. To decipher the rapidly changing urban territories across the planet, we need a radical shift in the analytical perspective on urbanisation. In this book, a transdisciplinary international research team presents an expanded vocabulary of urbanisation processes through a comparison of Tokyo, Hong Kong - Shenzhen - Dongguan, Kolkata, Istanbul, Lagos, Paris, Mexico City and Los Angeles. Based on a novel cartography and on detailed ethnographic and historical explorations, this book systematically analyses the diversity of responses to urgent contemporary urban challenges. It proposes a series of new concepts that allow us to assess the practical consequences of different urban strategies in everyday life. Essential book on urbanism New evaluation models for urbanisation processes Comprehensive analyses and illustrations of the urban patterns of international metropolises Comparison of urbanisation processes in eight metropolises around the world
Bauikonen im Auftrag von Frauen. Der Beitrag von Frauen an der Moderne des 20. Jahrhunderts findet bis heute kaum Beachtung. Noch immer stehen die männlichen Architekturschaffenden im Rampenlicht, während die Errungenschaften ihrer Partnerinnen, Mitarbeiterinnen, Kommilitonen und Auftraggeberinnen wenig erforscht sind. Dieses Buch liefert uns nun einen der fehlenden Bausteine für eine erweiterte Rezeption der Baugeschichte ab 1900 und rückt den Beitrag von Frauen, die zahlreiche ambitionierte Bauaufträge an die junge Architekten-Avantgarde vergeben haben, in ein neues Licht. Die Autorinnen Ingrid de Becque und Kerstin Bussmann präsentieren die Ergebnisse ihrer spannenden Recherche erstmals in dieser Publikation und erzählen die Entstehungsgeschichte vieler internationaler Bauikonen neu. Erste umfangreiche Publikation über Bauikonen im Auftrag von Frauen. Geschichte der Moderne des 20. Jahrhunderts mit neuem Fokus. Abbildungsreiche, leicht lesbare und zugleich wissenschaftlichen Ansprüchen genügende Dokumentation Erhältlich auf Deutsch und Englisch (Women Building Modernism, ISBN 9783035625813)
Infrastructures of Freedom sheds light on the impact of inadequate public lighting in self-built communities in Cape Town. In democratic South Africa, where infrastructure provision still reflects deeply embedded notions of citizenship, informal neighborhoods with minimal infrastructure provision face challenges beyond access to basic services and opportunities. Fear, the feeling of being forgotten, and living in undignified conditions are among the powerful experiences darkness brings about in these neighborhoods. The book not only reveals these experiences of everynight life, but takes a step further: it considers how the co-production of a solar public lighting project within a community improved everynight life and suggests ways for infrastructure to more successfully articulate citizenship. With a foreword by Christian Schmid and Sophie Oldfield
We are all improvising. We are all making decisions. And we are all watching each other improvise. Together, we are improvising. Decisions become shared ones. We will have built this city together. Convivial Ground invites the reader to discover the work of the transdisciplinary European design-build network Constructlab piece by piece. Taking Ivan Illich's understanding of conviviality as departure point, the essays, conversations, stories, and images in the book reflect on the specificities of collaborative practices as situated experiments, as well as on their possible roles in the creation of convivial societies. Exploring contemporary conditions of togetherness, learning, and working, the book is not a "how-to" guide, but an invitation to cooperatively write new convivial narratives.

This book offers straightforward advice about undertaking access audits and explains how they make buildings and services inclusive.
Dynamic artificial light in museums In galleries and museums, one's perception of art, space, and atmosphere is largely determined by lighting. But which light settings should art and museum experts and exhibition designers choose, and on what basis are those choices made? Pioneering LED technologies make customized lighting scenarios possible, turning artificial light into an interactive material in museum architecture - not only in terms of design practice, but also in terms of real-time spatial experiences. Computer-controlled lighting technologies are breaking boundaries, allowing the individual to take full control of lighting design. Light Up explores the potential of dynamic artificial lighting technologies in museum architecture, offering new insights into the use of light in exhibition spaces. How LED technologies can be used to develop customized lighting scenarios Studies in the real context of art institutions as well as programming of interactive light simulations Documents the research project "White Cube Teleporter"
