  • - Building Traditions of Europe, Japan and China
    af Klaus Zwerger
    548,95 kr.

    Building with wood as an ecologically viable material is a tradition with a long history. The timber architecture which has ensued over the past centuries reveals to the modern observer the depth of knowledge which has enabled both Eastern und Western cultures to use this wonderful material in such a creative way. In the most typical method of building with wood, elements are connected by using wood joints which do not require the assistance of adhesives or metal connectors. This art of wood jointing reached its zenith in Japan; but Europe too provided its share of highly influential forms. By looking at several hundred examples from Japan and 18 European countries, with a new chapter on China added to this enlarged edition, this book describes in great detail the history of timber architecture in terms of its technical, aesthetic and ecological dimensions. This thorough study is a mine of information to specialists in this field; it opens up to the craftsman of today what has become an almost forgotten world and provides a fascinating account for the general reader. Here is a man who has trekked though the wild Carpathian forests, the Norwegian outback, the Russian steppes and obscure regions of Japan in pursuit of the wood joint. He tells the story with a sense of unfolding discovery; for anyone interested in how buildings work this book is a joy to read."e; the architects' journal

    Le Corbusier hat 1954 in Ahmedabad den Sitz des Textilherstellerverbandes entworfen, der bislang nur selten publiziert wurde, aber dennoch als wichtiger Meilenstein im Werk des Architekten gilt. Der Bau nimmt grundlegende Stilmittel seines späteren Schaffens vorweg, wie beispielsweise für das Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts in Harvard. Das Buch dokumentiert das Gebäude und setzt es in Bezug zu seinem theoretischen Werk, wie Vers une architecture. Die Bedeutung zentraler Bezugspersonen wie Paul Valéry und John Ruskin für Le Corbusiers Arbeit manifestiert sich hier. Wichtige Elemente wie die promenade architecturale und der Gebrauch von brise-soleils werden dargelegt. Zahlreiche maßstäbliche Zeichnungen und neu erstellte Modelle verdeutlichen die wichtigsten Gestaltungsaspekte des Gebäudes.

    At around 100 years old, Burgenland is the youngest province in Austria, even though it was already developed by the Celts and Romans. The climate predestines it for elementary activities such as viticulture and tourism. Its advantages offer creative space for development. With their activities, they shape the more recent image of Burgenland, embedded in the vernacular houses in the villages and the representative buildings of the towns. 100 exemplary buildings tell of the development of building culture over the last 100 years. 7 essays cover topics such as Viennese modernism in Burgenland, internationalization, Burgenland brutalism and rural postmodernism. A unique compendium for connoisseurs and lovers of architecture and Burgenland.

    Sustainable, circular, up-to-date Most modern buildings are built from diverse materials, but few confront their manifold composition as a question of both design and performance. This book takes a close look at a series of global building traditions and contemporary practices to uncover the possibilities and challenges of working with mixed materials. Visually stunning, color-coded drawings reveal the materials and construction for every project. Through case studies, design experiments and writings, the authors examine the opportunities of heterogeneous construction for contemporary, sustainable, circular, and culturally situated architecture. With contributions by Jeannette Kuo, Ajay Manthripragada, and Jesús Vassallo, and photography by Naho Kubota. Graphic design by Andrew LeClair. Richly illustrated case studies of lesserknown hybrid construction techniques Beautiful graphic design and unique spot color printing reveal the interrelationships of materials in construction In-depth essays that discuss the technical, cultural, and environmental implications of heterogeneous construction
